Ethics is not about our own personal feeling, it’s not about fitting in with societal norms it is not about imposing our own religious beliefs because we think they are correct, it is not choosing to help some and not all because of preconceived notions. What ethics is “The fundamental values of the human services profession include respecting the dignity and welfare of all people; promoting self-determination; honoring cultural diversity; advocating for social justice; and acting with integrity, honesty, genuineness and objectivity.” (http://www.nationalhumanservices.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=43)
