text: I think that community service is not a waste of time, because people care about where they live. They want to keep it clean so that when family and relatives come over and visit they might want to stay a little bit longer because parts of the city is so clean. Also, it gives a good reputation to the city. Then big time celebrities would want to stay in the city for a little bit if they have a concert or something like that. Community service is a good idea because it makes you feel better about yourself when you go somewhere and you see that the city is all clean. Also if kids do community service then they will also have a good reputation, because you will be one of the kids that helped make the city look good. Other kids don't want to do community service because they think it is a waste of time. They would rather sit on the couch every day eating potato chips and watching T.V instead of going outside and working and helping your community. Community service can build friendships and help bond with your family and spend time with them more.
