John Lachs claims that we are surrounded by people who seem to
know what is good for us better than we do ourselves. Lachs
discusses the joy of choice and the rare virtue of leaving others
alone to lead their lives as they see fit. He does not mean that we
abandon them in their genuine hour of need, but that we aid them on
their own terms and not make help conditional upon adopting
approved beliefs and behaviors. Lachs believes help needs to be
temporary to discourage dependence. He contends that leaving others
alone in this fashion will create a community that is caring and
responsive to the needs of others. All it takes is an urge not to
meddle, even when we think it's for someone else's own good.
