Definition: The study of principles relating to right and wrong conduct.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look,
At a word that’s important, a thoughtful hook!
“Ethics,” you see, is what we’re going to explore,
It's more than just a word, wanting so much more.
The dictionary tells us, clear and bright,
"The study of principles relating to right and wrong conduct light."
Let's break that down, nice and slow,
It’s about
how
we should act, you know?
Ethics
is the science, a guiding plea,
Of what is good and just for you and me.
Think of fairness, honesty too,
Doing what’s right, in all that you do!
It's about making choices with a thoughtful mind,
Leaving kindness and compassion behind.
Does it involve rules? Yes, sometimes they’re there,
But ethics also asks, "Is this truly fair?"
So remember this lesson, sweet and true,
Ethics is all about
what we do
.
Now, who can give me an example of a situation where ethical considerations would be important? Let's hear your thoughts!
