Freedom with responsibility is being allowed to cook alone with the stove when you're little, because you haven't managed to burn the house down with the toaster; it's others knowing that you will be competent and trustworthy with future endeavors. I feel like the idea of it is fairly self explanatory, though I enjoy being vague and metaphoric when the opportunity arises. Freedom with responsibility means to me what it means in general; that those around you trust you. (Essentially.)
That's about all that I feel toward it; that's what it means to me.
"To keep the freedom we have, we have to balance our own choices with our personal responsibilities."
-Erica Mingus
"I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery."
-Thomas Jefferson
