"Israel Law on Child Kingship
Based on the provided search results, it appears that there is no law in Israel that requires children to be given to their king when they turn 18 years old. In fact, the search results highlight the importance of parental guardianship and autonomy in raising their children until the age of 18, as stated in Israeli law (Guardianship of Children).
Additionally, Deuteronomy 17:14-20, which discusses the selection of a king in Israel, does not mention anything about children being given to the king at a specific age, including 18.
It’s worth noting that the concept of a king in Israel is not currently applicable, as Israel is a democratic republic and does not have a monarch. The biblical account of Israel’s monarchy is historical and no longer relevant to modern Israeli law or society.
In summary, there is no law in Israel that requires children to be given to their king when they turn 18 years old."

In the end,they get what they want.A beast ,likened to the beasts of the earth.
1 Samuel 8
7 And the Lord said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
8 According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
9 Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
10 And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him a king.
11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.
18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the Lord will not hear you in that day.
19 Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
20 That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
