Is it right to risk bringing such danger on one's relatives and friends by challenging the forces of law and order?

Is it right to risk bringing such danger on one's relatives and friends by challenging the forces of law and order?
I believe that it is both right, and both wrong to risk danger against on relatives and friends by challenging the forces of law and order. This is a difficult question because there are so many different answers to this questions for both the question being right and wrong. Why I believe that this question is right is because the forces of law and order are very harsh, when you are messing with them, your basically playing with a ball of fire. They control the country and how everything is supposed to go. In the case of "Boy in Striped Pajamas" the Nazi's want the family to go and work at Aushuitz. The Nazi's are very powerful people and you never know if you don't follow their rules and how they want things to go, what might happen to you. So I believe that he was doing what was right for his family in a way, he didn't want the forces to get a hold of him.

The reason why I believe that this is the wrong idea is because, well, the mother in the book was completely correct. This was no place for young kids to grow up. To think that your kids should grow up near a concentration camp is just horrible. Just to think that there are people being tortured, and people are dying there everyday is just really disturbing and to bring your family there is just a horrible thing to do, and I myself would never do, because I would never want my family, or my children to grow up in those surroundings. I believe that this is a dangerous situation, because like exactly what happened in the book, Bruno and most young boy's are adventurous and love playing around and discovering new things. To think that your child would just sit around the house all day for about a year is ridiculous and it's very dangerous because some day he is just going to want to break free, and will go out and explore. It's dangerous to think that if your child explores he might possibly run into the concentration camp and, will want to go in and see what is going on in there. In the book this is exactly what happened, and if the father had thought of the family, and the kids a bit more before he moved there he might not be in that situation.
