The most important part of the Tao, in my opinion, is Duties to Children and Posterity. I believe that we are put on this earth to provide for the future generation. Most people seemed to forget that life goes on after they died and that their will always be a generation that will come after theirs. Like parent provide for their children, one day it will be in our hand to love and nurture our children; and raised them to become respectable men and women. Believe it or not, one day our parent relinquish most of their power and it will expect their children to take part in the natural other of things; as a doctor in a hospital, a musician on stage, a lawyer in a courtroom, or a simple beggar on the street. To my belief, if their is no one to carry on the Tao of the natural other of life; they would of been no point to the Tao and all the other teachings in the world.

The law I would add to the Tao is the law of understanding. The ability for people to express their feeling, culture, religion et cetera without being looked down upon. A lot of times we forget that all people are not made the same and some are different than other and diversity should something that should revered and celebrated. A lot of time people try to hide their who they are because they fear they might be miss understood by other.
