      Hi @alexread1997 and @puddleduck

      I don’t really know why people do things they’ve been told not to do. I guess sometimes it seems exciting and you want to see what you can get away with.

      Sorry I don’t really have an answer.

      Afraid I cant help either other than to say, we just do! Maybe we think we know better or its fun to rebel!?

      I’m not sure of the answer either. But I’d say that particularly if your parents tell you to do something, sometimes it’s hard not to want to rebel!

      Sorry I can’t answer your question properly. Why do you think you do things you’ve been told not to do?
