The Relationship Lens helped influence my decision by giving us a process by which basic liberties can be protected.
Christopher Morrison My personal ethics statement. A person’s personal ethics are based upon ones core values, and their ability to rationalize a situation and determine the correct behavior.

Ethical issues vary from legal issues because ethical issues are individualistic and legal issues are embodied in a system that governs society. The legal system gives continuous guidance regardless of the ethical issues involves (Guido, 2010). Personal values are individual thoughts about an idea, object, or a belief. Individuals communicate their needs through values, Rassin, (2008) states that, “social science considers values a key motivator for human behavior.” Personal values are derived from family teachings, religious beliefs, and societal. “Personal values are basic motivation beliefs about desirable modes or outcomes of individual behavior” (Rassin, 2008, p. 8).

According to Dictionary.com (2013), “Ethics is a system of moral principles; the rules of conduct recognized in respect to a particular class of human actions or a particular group or culture; moral principles, as of an individual; or that branch of philosophy dealing with values relating to human conduct, with respect to the rightness and wrongness of certain actions and badness of the motives and ends of such actions.” There are factors that contribute to the development of personal ethics. Personal ethics drive your actions and emotions daily. The ethical principles you live your life by are not a traditional set of rules handed to you at birth. These ethical principles have grown and developed with you over time and many things influence how they are formed. Everyone is different whether good or bad because everyone has a different foundation on which they build his or her moral code.
