I wouldn't want to be obedient all my life, would you?
Imagine having a fairy giving you a gift. Then imagine the fairy giving you a gift you didn't want. Imagine being obedient all your life until someone breaked the spell. I wouldn't want to be obedient all my life, would you?
I'm with you Jen. I wouldn't want to have to do as I'm told all my life. As young people we learn about making decisions and consequences. As adults, the learning continues but we do lear, explore thought, develop principles and gain wisdom. Making decisions and carrying them out is an intrinsic part of life. I wouldn't want it taken away. Barbara
Unlike your Dad, I was quite disobedient in my younger teenage years. It was fun to break some rules here and there. While some may that, oh "Eddie is a trouble maker" - perhaps that's true - i wouldn't trade that life for anything else; it has all led to where i am today. We have short lives on planet earth and i highly recommend breaking some rules and having some fun from time to time ;). Eddie
I'm now somewhere in between, Jen. According to my family, I was quite wild when I was young and many times I came home with no food left for me to eat because I was staying way past my curfew! I think I have to be home around 6:30 pm LOL!

Have you been watching Ella Enchanted by any chance? I agree it would be no fun to always have to obey. How would you learn anything?
