The Creator And The Created

Must the creator, who is responsible for creating, be responsible for the created too? (Yes, of course.) Does the creator have the right to be the destroyer of the created too? (No, of course.)

In Buddhism, we are the (re)creators responsible for (re)creating ourselves karmically. We might have the right to destroy ourselves, but as there is rebirth, we might as well strive to (re)create ourselves to be better now.
