Best Interest

Because you tend toward excessive individualism at the best of times, consider the impact of your decision on the whole community. Sometimes an individual actually benefits by restraining autonomy for the good of the community. As you consider what your duty is, remember that others may see the situation differently or need different supports to fulfill their duties. As you learn to consider the perspectives of others in your decision making process, you will live out the best of your ideals with compassion and care for others.

The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to act on behalf of the interests of young children. The NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct offers guidelines for responsible behavior and sets forth a common basis for resolving the principal ethical dilemmas encountered in early childhood care and education promoting a commitment to integrity, veracity, fairness, and human dignity at all levels; nevertheless, further research and/or developments may change the current code and state of knowledge. NAEYC have a Statement of Commitment; however, isn’t part of the organization’s Code of Ethics; instead, it is used as a tool, for personal acknowledgement of an individual's willingness to

Henrietta Lacks, a woman that died of cervical cancer in 1951, single handedly changed the field of science. Not long before she passed away, a doctor took a sample of her cancer cells, the cells from her cervix were later on named HeLa cells, and these cells helped pave the way to numerous experiments and research all over the world. Even though HeLa brought along many achievements with its discovery, it also brought disappointments to some researchers, and pain for her family. You see, she nor her family consented to her cells being sampled, or the amounts of experiments and research that occurred after. Her family was never aware that such actions even took place. Even so, on February 1st, 1951, the day Henrietta Lacks walked in to John

To respond appropriately to the most ethically relevant factors we will discuss the justifiable possible actions to consider. There were many different things we recommend in responding to this case in an ethical fashion. The first recommendation is to see the case out to the supreme court in support of Peggy. Referring to the Davis v. Davis Case () in 2004, we use the structure used for determining the fate of the embryos in that case and apply it to our case. The court created a hierarchical structure for disposition of the embryos. It follows three steps: first, the preferences of the genetic parents are considered; second, a prior agreement; and third, weighing the interests of the parties. Since the preference of the genetic parents

For the sake of clarification in this debate, I would like to define the following terms from the Merriam Webster Dictionary:

The main idea behind EIT is to compel a prisoner or detainee to see the interrogator as the master who is in charge of his or her pain. It is an activity in which you are trying to forcefully take compliance rather than gain voluntary cooperation. If the prisoner does not immediately respond by giving information, whether valid or fabricated the next step in the process is introduced and this will continue until such time that a prisoner’s will is broken and they automatically comply with the demands of their captures, whether that be to provide information or complete some other kind of task.

Should attorneys always be submissive to their clients? We often perceive lawyers as some kind of genie that solely pursues the client's will, persuaded by financial interest; “A lawyer owes his or her client a duty of zealous representation and loyalty”. But how about those who serve a Civil right organization, a public interest Organization or any law firm, with an interest far broader than financial gain. They all anticipate victory as the end goal; however, they might prefer taking different routes at times because their collective action and decision determines the faith of the clients, the later career of the attorney, the image of the organization, and even possible future clients. The attorney/client privileges

In research studies with human and animal participation, researchers must adhere to ethical principles to ensure the rights of participants are protected. In 1978, the Belmont Report was issued "which articulated three primary ethical principles on which standards of ethical research conduct was based: beneficence, respect for human dignity, and justice" ( Polit & Beck, 2014, p. 83). These ethical principles remain the standards for research behavior today.

Hi Lane, I enjoyed your post and you have a great example. I would agree that people tend to join associations where there is a high self-interest level. When we have a self-interest in an association we are committed and passionate about our civic activities. This passion is passed on to others and can be contagious. I believe that the self-interest makes the civic duty enjoyable and it allows us to connect with others in the community that have similar interest or connection. When there is self-interest both the giver and receiver of the civic action

For example, your 13 year old best friend. This person will not have that much experience to base their advice on. They don’t know that much about life yet so they may not be able to give you the best advice. On the other hand, if you talk to your grandmother. Your grandmother is probably old enough to know a few things about the problem you are dealing with. She will most likely give you advice based on her lifetime and since she is old, she has experienced many more things that your 13 year old best friend has. As you can see, the life experience is a big factor for when you are asking for

Kant argued that it is morally illegitimate to give preference to any individual or group of individuals over any other person or group of persons in moral considerations. But clearly this claim is wrong. There are times and places in which individuals are at least justified morally in placing their own interests or the interests of their families or the interests of any extended group with whom they are identified over the interests of any other individuals or groups of individuals. The rejection of Kant's demand that morals to be moral must be universal is a dominant theme in most contemporary Jewish writing. It is most evident in moral discussions about identity with a
