Care ethics compels every individual to take responsibility for the needs of family and friends. On the other hand, traditional theories of obligation focus on the notion of what we should do as morally fundamental. As opposed to traditional theories of obligation, care of ethics does not promote "obligation" or "duty" rather it is concerned about our personal relations. For instance, it is not the parents' duty to love the child. Since ethics of care is incomplete, having traditional theories of obligation will complete it as it expands on our interaction with non-relations like animals and strangers.
