    was lucky enough to live in for a couple of years, mainly because it is a modern building (approximately 25 years old) but was designed with a classical style.

    Ethical Reasoning Ethical dilemmas can sometimes be very complex situations where the decision and individual makes could have a negative effect on either party, depending on which decision you choose.
