"On Individuality" is chapter 3 in J. S. Mill's book "On Liberty". In it, Mill discusses - even though he does not define - individuality and how happiness and achievement of superior pleasures come from it. Conformity to customs could cost a person's joy in living and his/her freedom of thought.
Individuality is directly connected to liberal democracy in the sense that such form of government allows for it to be practiced. Both ideas walk hand in hand. If a person seeks individuality, he/she is striving to think and believe whatever he/she chooses right and proper, or even most profitable. Other forms of government - such as monarchy or aristocracy -, tend to limit or, on occasion, even erase the possibility of self-expression.
It is Mill's opinion that participation in a democracy cultivates the character of the citizens. And cultivation of character is a possible definition of the word individuality. Individuality is achieved when a person is able to see him/herself respected, his/her ideas heard, even if not accepted. The necessary freedom for a person to do that - to think, talk and act on his/her own terms - comes with democracy.

He kept track of his progress towards a virtuous life using a chart with 13 virtues.
Hi. This question requires you to use your creativity and drafting skills and for that reason, I can't write the letter for you, but I can show you how to write it and that's what I'm going below.
To begin writing the letter, you must imagine yourself as Douglas' mother and think about how upset you were about your son's accident in the YMCA pool, which was left completely under supervision. After imagining the situation you can write the letter as follows:
- Start by making a statement to the person you are writing the letter to. You can start with "Dear Mr/Mrs...."
- Begin a second paragraph by introducing yourself, and showing why this letter is being written. Then comment on the accident and give reasons why you believe the YMCA authorities are responsible for this accident.
- Start the third paragraph giving suggestions on how this problem can be resolved and claiming something that should be done to prevent new accidents from happening.
- End the letter by stating that you hope these issues will be resolved quickly and that you hope all families can have good experiences with the YMCA in the future. Remember to be polite throughout the letter.
