By becoming and independent person, a person can learn to do things on there own. I'm not saying that doing everything by yourself is good. Sometimes a little advice from someone once in a while is good. When you are completely lost and hopeless, it is best to get help or advice. When it comes to doing homework it is best to use your knowledge. We go to school and learn for a reason. That reason is to use what we have learned. When we are young we tend to ask our friends or our parents for the answers to a question or for money. As we grow older we learn that we don't that have that option. If we ask other people for advice or answers to a question when we are young, when we go to college we would be lost and not know what to do. Our parents won't be with us in college to tell us what to eat and what not to eat. By using your own knowledge we get used to doing things on our own, which shows a sign of maturity. Part of being an adult is learning to trust in yourself and learning to depend only on yourself.
By using your own knowledge instead of asking other people for advice you can learn from mistakes. If you get a question wrong on your homework or on your classwork you will learn what you did wrong and probably will never make the same mistake again. If you just ask a classmate for the answer to a problem you will never learn what is wrong and what is right. You will get so used to relying on someone for answers throughout middle school and high school that when you get to college and the real world you wouldn't know what to do. You'll realize that your friends are not there to tell you their answers and you'll regret not doing things on your own. You'll regret not trying to learn as much as you possibly could. You'll be so used to relying on someone to be there for you and when it gets time to find a job and pay bills you wouldn't know what to do. By doing things on your own you'll learn how to trust yourself and realize that you won't need your mom or dad or your friends for anything anymore.
