With the help of your teacher, reflect about the following questions:
What is the problem described in this case?
- The text mentions that rights can be suspended when laws are infringed.
- It gives the example of paying for water service as an obligation.
- The problem is that people may not fulfill their obligations (like paying for water), which can lead to suspension of the right to water.
The problem is that some people do not fulfill their obligations (e.g., paying for water service), which can cause the suspension of their right to water.
Who is affected and how?
- The people who do not pay for water service are directly affected.
- They may lose access to water.
- The community is also affected because the common good depends on everyone respecting others' rights.
The people who fail to pay are affected because they may lose water service, and the community is affected because the common good requires everyone to respect others' rights.
What are people's obligations to other people's rights?
- Governments include citizens' obligations in their laws.
- These obligations are for the common good and respect for other people's rights.
- An example is paying for water service.
People must respect others' rights, fulfill their duties for the common good, and comply with laws, such as paying for water service.
In what cases can the right to water be suspended?
- The text states that rights can be suspended when laws are infringed.
- Not paying for water service is an example of breaking the law.
- Therefore, the right to water can be suspended when someone fails to meet their legal obligations.
The right to water can be suspended when laws are infringed, for example, when someone does not pay for the water service.
How would you solve this problem?
- I would talk to the people affected to understand why they are not paying.
- I would look for solutions like payment plans or government support for those who cannot pay.
- I would promote awareness about the importance of fulfilling obligations for the common good.
I would promote dialogue, offer payment alternatives for those in need, and raise awareness about the importance of respecting laws and others' rights.
