The Basics of Judaism: Basic Values and Morality: Improving People:
Are we responsible for improving other people's
behavior?
We should try to improve others, but only if they're
willing to accept our advice (Lev. 19:17; Talmud,
Arachin 16b). If we aren't able to improve others,
we are better off staying away from them, as it says
in the first verse of Psalms.
