Student Success Statement
“Obedience sums up our entire duty.”
I don’t believe we have to be obedient. We shouldn’t have to conform and obey everything. Yes, we should obey laws and our parents and people like that but that is in a way common sense. If you don’t obey the law you will face the consequences. But Obedience shouldn’t be a person’s main concern. We as human beings should have that basic human right of deciding what we want to do.
