“Unless a man has the talents to make something of himself, freedom is an irksome burden. We join a mass movement to escape from individual responsibility, or, in the words of an ardent young Nazi, to be free from freedom. It was not sheer hypocrisy when the rank-and-file Nazis declared themselves not guilty of all the enormities they had committed. They considered themselves cheated and maligned when made to shoulder responsibility for obeying orders.

“What we often take to be family values--the work ethic, honesty, clean living, marital fidelity, and individual responsibility--are in fact social, religious, or cultural values. To be sure, these values are transmitted by parents to their children and are familial in that sense. They do not, however, originate within the family. It is the value of close relationships with other family members, and the importance of these bonds relative to other needs.” NeedsChildrenFactsValuesIndividualSocialParentReligiousResponsibilityHonestyMembersEthicsImportanceCleanRelativeWork EthicFidelityFamily MembersFamily ValuesRelationships With OthersIndividual ResponsibilityClose RelationshipClean Living Author:David Elkind
