1.VOLUNTARINESS
2. RESPONSIBILITY

Let's Reflect!
2. RESPONSIBILITY
- This refers to the person being accountable for his or her actions
and their consequences.
This means that:
- taking responsibility can either mean a person voluntarily taking
responsibility for his or her own actions, or being held
responsible by other people
- responsibility can also have a positive or negative meaning, and
it goes hand-in-hand with voluntariness in determining the
morality of an action

by the car, he would take responsibility for his heroic
action. The other people who saw his act may regard him
as a hero and express admiration for him.
