Education is best learned when students are able to view new perspectives, on ideas and events.Students become more aware of the surroundings, and begin to develop their own opinions. These ideas begin to shape their view and it becomes important to fully understand the whole context of a situation. This is especially true when, a student feels that his or her teacher are not following strict regulations in school. For example, if a student finds out that a teacher or professor, has misbehaved, physically or mentally towards a child, then it correct to question authority. If there is a problem that the student finds offensive, then it is in their very duty to go against authority. This is one of the lessons that all students should learn

There are times when students must obey and respect authority. This is quite apparent when the principal is speaking in front of assembly. It is in the rightful duty of the student to respect the principal when he or she is speaking. The principal is considered as one of the leaders of the school and it is important to give attention to his speech. The principal is considered one of the guiding lights of education. He is able to provide efficient advice to support all students. He is provides, knowledge and insight into all aspects of education that is unknown to the student.

As new generations of students enter the world of education, they should learn to respect authority. Whether the authority is teachers, professors, parents or someone else, they provide the students with security. They also provide advice and are truly concerned with the future of advancement of the student. The student must respect and appreciate their judgment. Only when the student feels that the authority is misbehaving or not respecting their own rules, does it become necessary for the student to question authority. The student should then feel the need to go against the authority. Students should bring their peers together and voice their opinions, concerns and discuss when appropriative regulation of authority is necessary. This is especially true, in the case of a teacher, misbehaving with a student.
