“**Questioners resist rules for rules’ sake**. A reader posted on my blog: “My son’s school principal said that kids were expected to tuck in their shirts. When I expressed surprise at this seemingly arbitrary rule, the principal said that the school had many rules just for the sake of teaching children to follow rules. That’s a dumb reason to ask anyone, including children, to follow a rule. If we know of such rules we should seek and destroy them, to make the world a better place.” “ --- **Tags** -- [[quotes]], [[rebellion]], [[self-reflection]] , [[habits]] **Source** -- [[20240806084000 - B - Better Than Before]]`
