Throughout the story, Finny demonstrates his adverse relationship with authority in general. While he tends to abide by the given rules in most "official" situations, when he is on his own or spending recreational time, his attitude and actions reflect his dislike of boundaries and structure.
Remember, Phineas is the one who instigates most of the hazardous adventures that he and the narrator enjoy. While Finny's life tends to be one without borders or confinement, he speaks of authority with a healthy degree of respect, at the same time.
