text: Next, if you ask more than one person for advice, then you will have more choices on what to do, like if Generic_Name had asked his mom for advice also, not just Generic_Name, then he probably would have chosen his moms advice over Generic_Name's, but sadly he only asked one person for advise and he did the wrong thing. If you ask a lot of people what to do than you can take all the advice given and choose what you think was the best advice given. You don't have to feel bad because you didn't use somebody's advice, or totally agree with them. Although they might not know the most about the advice they're given, you should still listen because you never know when that persons advice can help you. If you ask multiple trusted people that you think will have good advice, like a parent, then they are probably giving you good advice. If you are getting a bunch of different advice then you can chose yourself on what you think is best for you with the advice you have.
