NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct 1 Revised April 2005 Code of Ethical Conduct and Statement of Commitment A position statement of the National Association for the Education of Young Children Preamble NAEYC recognizes that those who work with young children face many daily decisions that have moral and ethical implications. 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. The Statement of Commitment is not part of the Code but is a personal acknowledgement of an individual’s willingness to embrace the distinctive values and moral obligations of the field of early childhood care and education. The primary focus of the Code is on daily practice with children and their families in programs for children from birth through 8 years of age, such as infant/toddler programs, preschool and prekindergarten programs, child care centers, hospital and child life settings, family child care homes, kindergartens, and primary classrooms. When the issues involve young children, then these provisions also apply to specialists who do not work directly with children, including program administrators, parent educators, early childhood adult educators, and officials with responsibility for program monitoring and licensing.
Ultimately, her concerns were directed towards her belief that a same sex relationship will be detrimental to her grandchildren. I received little information relating to the full back-ground and story of Mrs Peters, however utilising Egan’s skill helper model which discusses techniques that need to be adopted when there is limited information on the referral such as stage three of the model. The technique involves brainstorming, and choosing the best strategy of how to conduct the interview (Egan 2007). Examining the needs of Mrs Peters and evaluating how she felt when talking to the social worker, provides a starting point for discussions. Allen and Langford (2008) make a distinct comment on non-verbal communication, the skill indicates true attitude and conveys how a profession feels
Her work has included analysis of caring and its place in ethics (Caring: A Feminine Approach to Ethics and Moral Education - 1984); Also, an attempt to rethink evil from the perspective of women (Women and Evil - 1989) and a series of books that have explored the implications of a concern for caring with education (The Challenge to Care in Schools - 1992; Educating Moral People - 2002; Happiness and Education - 2003). Nel Noddings has also sought to encourage people to engage philosophically with education (Philosophy of Education, Educating for Intelligent Belief or Unbelief - 1995), and explored welfare policy if caring - a way of life learned in homes is placed at its center (Starting at Home: Caring and Social Policy - 2002). In emphasizing the importance of caring relationships for teaching and learning, she integrates her life experiences with her academic and professional peers. Noddings also suggested that children work hard for people they respect, which is something I completely agree with. She proposes an alternative educational scheme based on caring.
How Personal and Societal Values can Influence Ethical Decision Making When discussing nursing ethics, it is important to remember that ethics refers to ethical standards that are considered acceptable by most people. We start developing our personal values during childhood, and those values shape and influence our beliefs and behavior as adults. Values are different for each individual and because they regulate our behavior, they affect the way each of us view and respond to ethical decisions. When nurses are working in the health care setting, it is important to understand and appreciate that each individual will have values that differ from our own (Chmielewski, 2004). Registered nurses are in a position to advocate for the rights of their patients and are often involved in ethical decision-making processes.
Ethical Considerations 1 Running head: RESEARCH METHOLOGY CASE REVIEW Ethical Considerations for Working With Children Research Methodology Case Review Name University Ethical Considerations 2 Ethical Considerations for Working With Children Research Methodology Case Review The psychological assessment of personality, cognitive functioning, or intelligence is a sensitive professional action that should be completed with utmost concern for the well-being of the client and his or her family (Matarazzo, 1990). Professional psychology organisations such as the Australian Psychological Association (APA) and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) publish formal ethical principals for practitioners to adhere to. This essay is in response to a You Tube clip of university students conducting Piagetian tasks and will discuss breaches and possible breaches of the NHMRC ethical guidelines. This essay will also discuss the university student’s research methodology and provide suggestions for improvement. According to the NHMRC National Statement, in addition to ethical responsibilities pertaining to all research participants, the following ethical guidelines are to be considered when working with children and young people: (a) research merit and integrity; (b) justice; (c) beneficence; (d) respect; (e) standing parental consent; and (f) best interests of the child.
The list of reasonable questions could go on and on but clearly there should be a guideline set in place for entering parenthood, maybe it would stop uneducated, underage, and unwilling mothers from reproducing. For this ethical issue, I have chosen utilitarianism as my classical theory that could resolve this problem. This theory states that given choices, we chose the act that produces the best result for the most affected people. I feel that utilitarianism could help to resolve the problem because by setting in place a guideline by the state or government, it would ensure that children brought into the world could be cared for properly, before they are created. We would ensure this by passing laws and requiring teen’s to receive birth control.
You've been told and, but non of you really understand... If you are going to have decent lives, then you've got to know and know properly...

feeding tube fitted, nor was he a candidate for Total Parenteral Nutrition (T.P.N.) infusion, due to abnormal blood analysis. The ethical dilemma then lies with the patients’ autonomy vs. a nurses’ paternal instinct to act in their best interests. This assignment will consider the statement “…ignorance of the law is no defence and the nurse should be aware of the limits which the law imposes on her, and also the power it gives her” (Dimond 2005). It will try to give interpretation of this statement by mentioning the situation above throughout, which highlights a number of ethical and legal dilemmas - while maintaining confidentiality by protecting the patients’ identity using obscurity (NMC 2004).
