ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Solidary obligations

Imagine you have a group of five friends and you all decide to have a picnic together. Your friend, let's call him Jack, is in charge of bringing the drinks, but he accidentally forgets. Now, everyone is thirsty and there are no drinks.

In this situation, everyone in the group has a solidary obligation to help Jack fix the problem and get some drinks for the group. A solidary obligation means that you are all responsible for the same thing, and if one person fails, everyone else needs to help fix the problem.

So, instead of blaming Jack and making him feel bad, the group decides to work together to find a solution. One person suggests that they go to a nearby store and buy drinks, another suggests they ask someone passing by if they have any extra drinks, and another offers to share their own drink with the rest of the group.

By working together and taking responsibility for the problem, the group is able to overcome Jack's mistake and have a successful picnic. Solidary obligations are important because it teaches us to be responsible, cooperative, and considerate towards others.
