Exactly.But I suppose it would be wrong if I brought an Uzi to school right?The sad thing is that even us minors are starting to use weapons.Remember the Columbine massecre that left 14 dead?That was weapon use.Infact there was once a time when a pipe bomb was inside my school.There was 4 of them and we were evactuated to the nearby High School gym.And search dogs and cops had to find and disarm them.The world is in havoc right now and there is no sign of it getting better.Im afraid that the mistakes adults are making right now are going o have to be dealt with by kids.An example would be invading Iran and causing global terrorism and nuclear warfare.That would have to be dealt with by kids if the politicians made such a move.You knw something?Believe it or not minors seem to care more about Iraq then adults.When I went to the Airport recently with my family for vacation and they were showing a bunch of U.S soldiers who died all the adults in the Airport just looked away immedietly once they started talking about Iraq.And et at school when the teacher is not in the classroom.We talk about Iraq and Iran and nukes and stuff.Its not that my classmates are more mature because they are honors students.I mean in my art class we have a mix up of 7th and 8th graders.I often hear talk about Iraq.Its really weird actually.

Children do net yet know the right from wrong. Adults presumably do. It is wrong to start a fight. It is not wrong to defend yourself. So the "two wrongs" do not apply when someone is punching you in the nose and you hit back to stop the aggressor!
There are national and international laws against starting wars but try and enforce it!

There is war because there are aggressors.
It's not wrong for kids to fight. Kids should defend themselves.
I'm an adult, I have never told my son not to fight. I taught him how to fight, and I also taught him how to kill if necessary.
Your assumption that there is a wrong somewhere in here is misguided.

"Why is there war?"
Why are there stupid people who ask stupid questions?
War has always been with us, and always will be with us. Wars start when one country wants something from another country, but is unable to get it through peaceful means. Every country needs to maintain the right to go to war, or else they will be trampled on by other countries. In order to make the threat of force and/or the capability of self-defense credible, a military must be created and maintained.
"why is it wrong for kids to fight but its right for adults to fight with weapons?"
It's not wrong for kids to fight.

Good question....
Maybe we should re-think modern playground etiquette.
When the bully punches our child in the nose... maybe we SHOULD allow our child to "take the bully out".
I made the mistake once of telling my children not to fight, to try to work things out. The bully just kept kicking their bu**s....
I gave in after the second episode of 'reporting it to the Principal' and trying to talk to the parents and scheduling counselor time.
I told them to kick the bullies A@@
They did, and they told the bully when they were done that they'd come back and do it again if he bullied anyone else ever again.
The bully became a 'model student' after that...... or at least he stopped beating other kids up while mine were around.

genuine, yet governments ran by adults are no longer young ones. With a new child you could tell them to no longer combat and that they're going to quit or no longer combat, hit, kick or what ever. Governments ran by adults would desire to have somesort of ability in managing geonicide, dictators or purely airplane old loopy jihadists.

1. War is because of resources, grudges, land and power.
2. I'm going to assume you are talking about soldiers in reference to your first question. Soldiers are trained professionals, disciplined, and tested before they "fight".
And no, two wrongs don't make a right.

some parents tell their kids not to hit,they punish the offense by hitting the child. war is the last resort sometimes.
