These two girls partnered together to do a presentation in English.
What if one messed up the presentation? Should only the other who didn’t mess up get better marks than the one who did? Or should both get the same marks since they are working as a team.
Of course the one who didn’t mess up could always argue to the teacher that she was not the one who messed up the presentation and so should get better grades. But as Illuci correctly pointed out in my post yesterday that you at least have to bear the responsibility for choosing your partner.
So it is in life – whether in a friendship, a business deal or even marriage, you should always remember that you have to bear your part of your choice.
But there is one situation I think that is debatable, that has to do with the family you are born into. Do you have a choice in such a “partnership”? Since you do not have a choice in choosing the family you want to be born into, should you then bear any responsibility for the family you were born into?
Hmm…what do you think?

At our school students get a shared point and an individual point at presentations and other group work. You cannot choose your family but nevertheless I think it's a duty to care about them, especially your parents, as long as they "didn't harm your soul" if you understand what I mean. Just because the bonds are so tight, relationships with parents can easily turn into conflict, "unbearable". But my wife and I learned how you can create distance for yourself and repair these things just by taking distance, looking at it and ask yourself what's the big deal? This often turns out to work positively. Family is something Nature (or God) imposed on you like your home country, and you 'll have to cope with it, and be lucky if you love them and they you. That's how I feel about it, thanks for giving me a trigger to re-think these things.
