Ethics Class - catch up session, 10am-4pm

Tara posts the class list on the door, as promised in her email, detailing the gaps in each student's participation. Penned at the bottom in a neat round hand is a note: Some of you may have discussed these with TAs out of class. Please inform me if this is the case.

She looks happy and well-rested as she sets up discussion stations around the room.

[ooc: I'll put names on the comment threads for the people who haven't completed them, rather than listing up here. Because I'm odd that way.]

Re: Duty of Care

"Um, I think anyone who is currently helpless- like... kids, I guess, but will be able to support themselves later in life- they owe the same courtesy to the people who took care of them, if they needed it because of illness or injury. Those who might never be able to care for themselves... that's different, and I think they're owed things like food, and shelter, as well as emotional and mental attention- cause even with food and a roof over one's head, I don't think that's really enough. As for "when are they ready to assume responsibilities?" well, every region seems to have their own idea of Legal Age, or whatever, but that seems really arbitrary, because they're all so different. But there's really no way to evaluate things on a case by case basis, so most parents try to teach their kids enough so that they'll be ready by the time their laws say they should be."
