Rule of reciprocity

Explanation:

The rule of reciprocity refers to the belief that if someone does something good, polite or kind for you, you should do something good, polite or kind for them also.

This is a very good social norm unless you start treating others badly because someone was mean to you before.

The latter should be avoided.
