Results of Disobeying Rules and Regulations
1. Getting in Trouble
When you don’t follow the rules, you might get in trouble with adults like your parents or teachers. This could mean getting a time-out, losing privileges, or having to do extra chores. For example, if you don’t clean up your toys after playing, your parent might not let you play with them the next time.
2. Losing Trust
If you often break rules, friends and family may start to lose trust in you. They might feel sad or upset. For example, if you don’t share your toys when playing, your friends might not want to play with you anymore because they feel hurt.
3. Feeling Sad or Lonely
Breaking rules can make you feel sad or lonely. When you don’t follow the rules at school or home, you might not get to join in fun activities. If everyone else is playing together and you’re in trouble, it can be a lonely feeling.
4. Making Others Upset
When you don’t follow rules, it can upset other people. If you don’t listen to your teacher, it can make the class noisy and hard for others to learn. This can lead to a lot of frustration for everyone involved.
5. Learning Bad Habits
If you keep breaking rules, you might get used to it and start thinking it’s okay. This can lead to more bad choices in the future.
