Technically, in America, children cannot be soldiers. They have to be at least 18 years of age, and at that time they are legally considered adults.

What are some reasons that children become soldiers?

Children may become soldiers due to a combination of factors, including poverty, lack of education, and social instability in conflict zones. In some cases, armed groups recruit children by exploiting their vulnerability, offering them a sense of belonging or financial incentives. Additionally, during prolonged conflicts, children may be forcibly conscripted or feel compelled to join armed groups to protect their families or communities. The normalization of violence in their environments can also desensitize them to the realities of warfare.

They are easy to control and many times they are drugged to make them do things that they may not want to do. Sometimes they are sold into the slavery by the parents to the army.
