Discuss, in general, why children are socialized to obey authority figures.
Does the way we socialize our children set them on a possible path toward this kind of obedience?
What benefits come from our children blindly following the authority figures in their life?
What negative consequences can come from this kind of socialization?
Is there a better option in the way we socialize our children? If so, what would be a better strategy?
Should this strategy change as the child ages? If so, how would it be different for older children versus younger children?
