The fact that someone could seriously ask that question is actually a great example of what's so bad about mediocrity.

It's not so bad to give to other people, by the way. In high school, at least where I live, kids are required to perform community service. I think it's healthy.

I fail to see how, exactly. Requiring someone to perform community service to graduate doesn't do anything towards making someone a better citizen or person. The kind of people who would enjoy doing community service aren't the ones who would need to be better people, and those who could stand to be better would be more likely to resent having to do it and learn to avoid it.
All of which says nothing about trying to fit this community service in among school, extracirricular activities, work and sleep.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
