In this sidenote session, we discuss the obligation to perform and whether we, as spectators, should have so much of a say in a performer&apos;s decision. We specifically look at Simone Biles and Naomi Osaka, and the backlash they received for withdrawing from major athletic events. They both cited mental health issues as the reason. Should we applaud them for prioritizing their mental health or is there more of an importance on sticking to your commitments?
