(Tsai, 2007) Chemical castration places a hormone in the male’s body that does not allow them to produce sperm. This will help prevent unwanted pregnancies during the sexual offense. (Amlin,
National Geography (2007) showed a disheartened scene, in which a young boy screamed to his grandfather, who is a fafafini, “I would never, never, never… I’m a boy, not a girl. You are mad”. I was frustrated at how Samoan families abuse their children at that young age. In my view, it is wrong and unethical. They should not decide which sexual orientation for the young boy against his will.
Abby Schleicher N365 Psychosocial and Ethical Aspects of Care Ethical Case Study 1. The ethical dilemma in this case is that the family of JD will not permit to removing his organs, even though he had the little heart on his licenses that states he is an organ donor. 2. The facts are that JD was a 25 year old male who sustained massive head trauma had the little heart on his licenses that stated he was an organ donor, however, he did not sign up for the state donor registry. His parents had not talked with him before the accident if he wanted to donate his organs so they were not sure what their son wanted to do with his organs.
Also, to stand for the most vulnerable which is the pre-born child. To Brian Westbrook, the unborn fetus has a value, and he says, with kindness, that it would be a shame to contribute to its death before ever having a life. Looks can be deceiving may apply to Westbrook. By just looking at him, he looks like a defenseless boy. With his slender body and a face covered with acne, not even his business suit could convince a person that he is a professional, much less an adult.
As well as hearing about how a close friend was on the line of death and to watch my other friend realize what was right but still have to deal with the consequences, changed my life. Who knows whether I would have done steroids, and been permanently damaged. All I know is it was meant for me to see these peoples lives changed so dramatically. I will always be against steroid use for any person till the day I
Diamond and Sigmundson (1997) were interested in psychosexual development, and if our innate characteristics can be overruled or irrelevant when identifying ourselves with a particular gender. Diamond challenged what was a widely accepted theory; that a child is born without gender (distinguishing between sex: genitals, chromosomes – and gender: sense of masculinity of femininity), and could therefore be assigned to an opposite gender and adjust to a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle. This was brought to light when two male twins (David and Brian Reimer) underwent an operation on their penises as babies, resulting in David’s penis being burnt off. Sexologist, John Money, persuaded parents to raise David as a girl, in the belief that gender was determined by nurture. Unknown to Reimer, his story was falsely advertised as a success story.
Then they decide on having another child who born with genetic modification. After that, Vincent’s stronger brother, Anton was born. Day by day, Vincent grows up and he looks very nerdy with glasses, high-riding baggy shorts. He thinks that he is not a part of his family and his father rejects him for Anton. Vincent was very insecure and disappointed because his parents had no faith in him.
People with ADD or ADHD cannot concentrate in school or do common task without being distracted without their medication. People with depression cannot maintain relationships or open themselves up to other people without their medication. This makes you think that the people in Brave New World have no reason to be taking any drug at all since they are suppose to be genetically “perfect”. On the other hand, they all have something that is different about them and something they are insecure about like Bernard being a little short. Bernard being short and a little thin has nothing to do with the person he is but he was simply just born with it.
Q) “Fertility Treatment is never justified.” Discuss (10 Marks) Fertility Treatment is the use of medicine and medical procedures to help infertile couples who want children, have children. Fertility Treatment is allowed in the UK as it is viewed as a fundamental desire to want to have children and thus we should help couples who are having trouble conceiving to conceive. However some thinkers would argue that this is wrong and should not be allowed. Natural Law thinkers are set well against Fertility Treatment. They have many issues with processes such as IVF as masturbation to gain the sperm used in IVF is viewed as a misuse of the genitals.
Summary: Wrongful life lawsuits are always brought up by the child and presented through a parent or representative, claiming that the child should have never been born. These cases have been, usually, either rejected or dismissed by the courts, believing that a disabled life is better than no life at all. Currently no jurisdiction allows wrongful life plaintiffs to be awarded compensation for pain and suffering caused by their condition, mainly due to it being impossible to calculate these damages. In the typical wrongful life claim, the obstetrician, radiologist or genetic counselor made a mistake and either (1) failed to diagnose a child’s injury, (2) failed to properly report the child’s injury to other health care providers; or (3) failed to properly inform the parents of the child’s injury. Plaintiff's must be able to prove that if it had not been for the negligence of their doctor, they would have had the proper information to make an informed decision on whether or not to conceive or abort their fetus.
