Is it ok mandatory volunteer?

First of all, do we have the authority to dictate what others do with their time? Many people
say that being able to do this volunteer is a constructive way to spend time and also some
people would not know how great a volunteer experience is unless it is required of them.
But mandatory volunteering often causes many students to not want to do it again because
they are forced to do it.

First of all, many people say that volunteering is a constructive way to spend time, and they
are right as you spend your time helping others, but we also have to keep in mind that
many people are not always free, some spend up to 6 hours practicing a sport or attending
competitions, some take care of people in their homes either siblings or grandparents.
Besides this volunteering, they are given only a few options, and often they have to choose
between things they don't like to do when volunteering is optional to do things that you
like or enjoy doing.

Secondly, it is also said that some people would not know how good the volunteering
experience is unless they are forced to and it could be said that they do since many people
need to try things to know if they like it, but it is not an excuse to oblige them since in this
way many find it hard to do this work, and they can become resentful and never help
volunteer again in their lives; What's more, forcing them can also cause the quality of work
to decrease because they don't like what they do, they do things as they are and don't do
the job well.

It is for these reasons that my friend told me that when he did his volunteering he felt very
upset that he could not make decisions about his time and that he has to do things that he
does not enjoy doing just to be able to get grades at school, because even though he
practiced for the basketball team he still needed to volunteer, taking up a lot of time he
could spend training.
