If you want your children to be good citizens teach them that voting is a privilege/duty as a citizen. Are you a good role model for them?

    Alas, I have no children.  However, I have a few family members who refuse to vote; they won't even register to vote.  I can tell them why they should vote until I'm blue in the face, but they will not listen.  To them voting is just a waste of time.

    That is very sad Shuhak. I'm first generation American. My parents and grandparents fled The Armenian Holocust engineered by the Turks many decades ago. They became naturalized citizens and not voting was never an option. Perhaps the children of  naturalized citizens hold citizenship to be more precious than others. I'm gonna ask. Thank you for your reply m'dear. I sincerely hope my questions aren't causing you physical pain in your wrists. I enjoy our chats but I don't want to cause you more discomfort!
