Freedom of choice:

If my life i couldnt make any choices, or i didnt have any freedoms my life would be very different. I probably wouldnt know what choices are and i certainly wouldnt be able to understand them if it didnt have them. the choices i make in my life are always based on something, if i didnt have to make any it would make my life simpler but not better. Simpler because everything would just be planned out and i wouldnt have to think about it, i could just do it. But on the flip side deffinetly not better because maybe i wouldnt be doing something i enjoy, or worse something i couldnt do! life without choices would be like living like a robot, you would just do what needs to be done, not ask questions and that would be that.

Life would be without freedom of choice for any of my decisions very boring, and not fair. When you have the freedom of choice, you get to show what you like to do. Such as if you like to paint, it shows that you like art and like to be creative. Or if you play softball out of your decision it shows that you are sporty. It would be boring because if everyone chose for you you might be doing things you don't wanna do or you don't like to do. Also it may be dangerous because if your friends tell you what to do even though it may be dangerous, you wouldn't have a choice if you were to do it or not.
If I had one personal choice or freedom it would be to be able to relax when I want within reason. This is because everyone needs time to relax before being driven mad.I need a time to relax everyday. And if someone where to tell me when i could relax I wouldn't like that. Because it may be in the middle of my homework or doing something important. Or when I need to relax someone said I couldn't.

life without a say in anything would be awful. You wouldn't be able to do anything you want and you would have to follow the rules all the time without a say. Life is about changing the rules once in a while and learning from your mistakes. If there's no say in anything, you will never learn and people wont get to express what they think on the whole situation.

If i had one personal choice in my life, it would be to be able to i would say, is to have a say on things you like. Your parents couldn't tell you what you can and cant do because as a kid, you need to be able to express yourself and if you want to do something, then your parents shouldn't stop you, unless its something like really bad.

If I did not have the freedom of choice then life would be very boring. You could never go to the movies, go to a friends house, watch T.V. or do anything without permission. Every day you would get up, get dressed, eat, brush your teeth and you couldn't do any thing about it exept revolt but then the gov't would probably throw you in jail.

If I only had one choice to make I would make the choice of five hundred more choices. Exept even Genies don't let you have extra wishes so why would the gov't give you more choices. So I guess my one choice is to move to another country where there was the ability to make choices. Or if that wasn't allowed I would become a part of the Gov't so I could atleast have some other choices to make.

A) If in life you didn't have any personal freedoms, life would be boring and dull. Life would be so scripted if you couldn't have freedom. Try to imagine your life but you couldn't have any freedom. It would be terrible.
B) One thing I would like to have as my choice is when to wake up. I can't stand being woken up by people on school days. I don't like it because it feels like starting off in the wrong foot when your dragged out of bed.

1. Life would be boring and probably unbearable because you would be doing what someone else tells you to do and you can't say no. If someone told you to jump off a cliff then you would have to jump off a cliff.

2. I would want the freedom to say no, because going back to the jumping off the cliff, I could say no and not have to jump off a cliff.
