Imagine you're playing a game with your friends, and you all agree on the rules. But then someone new joins, or someone loses their favorite toy, suddenly the rules change. That's kind of like how governments work. They make big choices, but when things shift, they might decide to go back to an old idea or choose a new one altogether.
Examples
- A city decides to build a new park, but later tears it down when the mayor loses an election.
- A country signs a trade deal with another nation, but then backs out after an economic crisis hits.
- A school board votes for longer recesses, but then removes them because students are getting too many complaints.
