The Teen Bill of Responsibilities is based on a single premise: If you have rights, you have responsibilities. It is intended to be used as a workbook. The Bill of Responsibilities books, as well as the course, are based on the Socratic Method. That is, questions are asked and the reader fills in the answer. This allows readers and students to come to their own conclusions and realizations at their own pace. Because of this unique presentation, the answers to each question will be different for each person, depending on his or her own experiences. This also makes the learning experience more relevant because the answers - and, therefore, the understanding, or meaning, derived from those answers - will be based on the readers' experiences and not the author's.
