go through/into/for

People seldom see the good sides of things and the broader pictures. That's a shame. Therefore, don't go ____ life with that attitude, Kid.
A. into B. for C. through

I think all fit in the sentence.

What does a native speaker think about it?

Thanks!

Only one fits. One isn't possible and one is just illogical.

So which one do you think fits?
Thanks for being more specific.

If you had to choose one, which would it be?

You do the work. We'll comment on your attempt and your reasons for choosing the one you do. We know you said you thought that all three fitted, but now that you know we don't agree, which one would you choose in preference to the other two?

OK, I obey the rule!

Frankly, I think all make sense.

Now if you must, I think I will choose "go through". I think it has the meaning of living the life all the way through.

Is it OK this time?

Thanks anyway!

Yes, "through" is the only option that makes sense.

Is "into" not possible while "for" is just illogical.
Is my guess right? Can you tell me WHY?

Thanks again!

We wouldn't say "go for life." And you're already alive, so you can't go "into" life.
