The general idea is that when you send soldiers to war you ARE sacrificing them so that the rest of you can hopefully sleep more peacefully in your beds.
When you send teenage soldiers to war then you are sacrificing children. It is a perfectly valid point of view and to some extent depends on your legal/moral definition of "child".
