Will you stop people from telling you what to do?

Noble living is not to irritate others or get irritated from others. One can be assertive(be ones true self) without being aggressive or submissive. Get that rhythm and balance/harmony, joy would be ours.

It depends on the source. If I have the utmost respect for this person I will not take it as a negative command.

If the person is insecure with themselves and throws injustices onto you, then I have the power to say stop and walk away. I can give them my perspective, but will they listen?

When someone is lashing out at you telling you to do something that isn't for you to do, you see that there is a little child who wants attention and will do whatever needs to be done to get the "fix". You cannot reason with someone who isn't ready to realize the insecurity in themselves.

Some people need to be in control and no one really needs to be told what to do. In the work place this is different. A child needs guidance, but not an insecure adult throwing their "clouded insecurities" on a child.

Great question.

Not really. You have given them the right to stop you from telling them what to do. That is respect on both sides. When you go beyond that, it is not respectful. It is manipulation and discord. Even with children who have not yet acquired common sense, you need to be mindful of respect and love for them. If you are willful and dictatorial, they will grow to hate you or ignore you. You need to find a loving way to say, "Look. I know Rob is your good friend, but he is a chrystal meth user with a long rap sheet. I can't allow you to bring him into this house, for the safety of everyone living here. If I ever, I mean EVER catch you with that ****, you're going to be on your own buddy. Comprendo?"

It's too early in the morning for double negatives.

of coarse,people cannot tell anyone elce what to.no argument,one life,its your choice to do what youlike when you like,no arguemento be a free bird,ride with the wind,and keep a smile on your face...

I accept that english is probably not your mother tongue.

I applaud you for trying to contribute to this forum.

But, unfortunately, I find your questions incoherent and impossible to answer

Yes.

depends on who they are, and whether they are right or not

if they stopped me, for an inapropriate reason, they may believe they have a right to stop me from stopping them, but, they dont

;-P

I'm telling you that that question is horribly worded and should be redone. Now, whether or not you'll listen...
