Ethics


Is It Still Cheating If I Don't Get Caught?
by Bruce Weinstein, Ph.D.


Sometimes, when faced with very difficult problems, it's hard to know what to do, especially when deciding on the right thing to do. Applying ethical principles to decision-making can enable you to make good choices consistently. Bruce Weinstein uses five life principles - do no harm, make things better, respect others, be fair, be loving - to help guide children and teens into making good choices that will benefit themselves and others.

Using a question-and-answer format, Weinstein suggests several responses, then breaks down each response according to the five life principles. In doing so, he gets readers to think about the consequences of particular actions. 

An excellent introduction to ethical behaviour that can help us live life with integrity.
