What Responsibilities Accompany Our Rights?

Grade
K-6
6-9
Lesson Duration

From the Center for Civic Education

“Suppose your government does everything it can to protect your rights. Is this enough? Will your rights be protected? Do we have any responsibility to protect not only our own rights, but each other’s as well?

In this lesson you will discuss some important questions about the responsibilities of citizens. You must develop your own answers to these questions. We hope this lesson will help you develop good answers.”
