"Parents face a series of unique new challenges in this more egalitarian world, not the least of which would be sending a daughter off to war. But parents all over this country are doing that right now, with daughters who enlisted; some have even expressed surprise that young women, in this day and age, are not required to register alongside their brothers and friends. While all involved in this debate over the years have invoked the assumed opposition of the people, even 10 years ago, more than half of all Americans polled believed women should be made eligible for the draft. Besides, this is not about comfort but about fairness. My son has to register with the Selective Service this year, and if his sister does not when she turns 18, it makes a mockery not only of the standards of this household but of the standards of this nation."
-Anna Quindlen
Selective service
As parents, raising your children, you want to treat them with the same fairness and give both the same opportunities regardless of sex. As your son turns 18 years old, he has to register for selective service. What about your daughter? Quindlen believes it is a "mockery not only of the standards" of a household "but of the standards of this nation". Also, Quindlen stated, "ten years ago stating that more than half of all Americans polled believed women should be made eligible for the draft." So why has this not been done yet? With more and more woman enlisting, it is time to stop fearing opposition and start allowing women to be drafted for selective service.
