Why do elements in group 2 have an oxidation number of plus 2?

Elements in group 2 have an oxidation number of +2 because they readily lose two electrons to achieve a full outer shell, which is the most stable electron configuration. This results in a +2 oxidation state as they become positively charged cations.
