I've noticed that a lot of kids but also often adults do not like to follow the rules, which are not their own.

Based on the assumption that since I have no influence on the rules it does not have to comply with them :D

It is not the act of creating rules that betokens an obligation to live under them, but the decision to live in an environment (legal, political, social or natural, as the case may be) in which those rules apply.

Some adherence is clearly voluntary: when I choose to enter into a contract with someone, I agree to be bound by the contract. And I agree that those rules may be enforced against me. Like the sign says at the airport: if you don't want to undergo a security screening, you are free to choose not to fly.

Politically, for those of use fortunate enough to live in free democracies, our adherence to law is grounded in our ability to exercise the electoral franchise.

Now there are circumstances in which people are subject to rules that they did not voluntarily undertake, and from which they have no prospect of freeing themselves. History has demonstrated time and again that unsustainable systems always fail. Governments that rule without the political support of the ruled and economies that fail to provide adequately for all participants should take note.

Ability to comply with the rules, it is particularly difficult for people like us Aspies and ADHDs , especially when we ware teenagers.

When i was kid approximately 13 years old i was summer camp (aimed especially for kids with Aspergers, ADHD or neurosis) i was like go there for vacation my parents also like this, because they don;t have to pay for it and have some vacation too. It was funded by Ministry of Health & Ministry Education.

I slept in a dormitory, the boys at the top of the girl on the bottom (No pun intended) just boys sleep on upper floor girls and ground floor.

Once I felt a little bit too much excited and decided to handle it alone, under the covers :D

Unfortunately roommate complained about my behavior to our tutor said that he could not sleep because "I groans like a slut in the German porn" :D

And I did not know at all what is porn. Another colleague from the same room (he had ADHD) was older than me by a year, brought some magazine ((with women) for men (adult)) title I do not remember, he said that that boy who reported about me to counselors is "boy scout" (a form of insult in the Polish youth language, but it turned that this boy was actually member of ZHP "Związek Harcerstwa Polskiego" Polish Scatting Association he was Aspie but back than i don;t know what it is ), snitch, loser and a nerd. He suggested that we might be entertained together, again "If you know what I mean" :D "But i don't know what He means" i founded it latter and lake it very very much :D

I latter talked with boy who reported me and become friends, he warn me that what i did in my bed is a sin and i should told about this to the priest , he admitted that he did it too,but in toilet not in dormitory, he also warn me about that boy who invited me to "mutual fun" that is perv and fag (and with such people true decent Poles shouldn't have nothing in common and he can turn me into fag too (sorry if offended anyone but i only repeat what i was told)

I loved to go there despite it being in some way a mental hospital

I wonder why we autistic people often breaking the social norms or even the rule of law?
