While I agree with the concept of personal choices and the inherent responsibilities relevant to said choices, the concepts of right and wrong are ingrained into us through the environment and actions of our parents from early on in a life.

With that in mind a good deal of responsibility can be laid at the feet of ones parents in how ones concepts of right and wrong are formulated. If one grows up in an abusive environment and never sees the other side of how life might occur in other places such behavior would seem normal and a likely pattern of continuation of such actions in ones life is likely to be repeated.

Only once one reaches an age or level of maturity where ones choices become ones own can individual choice come in to playin determining how live unfolds to an individual. Unfortunately, by that time formulations about right and wrong have already become imbedded in ones psyche and refutation of even wrongful behavior becomes foreign.
