Children typically have a favorite toy, stuffed animal, or blanket. For me, that is my care bear named Balloon. Balloon is light blue with a white stomach that has a red balloon, which is how she got her name. When I was younger, my mother won her for me at a carnival. Since my mother won her for me, I used to think of Balloon as a connection to my mother whenever either one of us were not home. I always slept with her and took her with me whenever I had a sleepover. Whenever I had a sleepover,…

The chapter title alone gave me the assumption of ethics, what else do I need to know about how to be ethical. Nevertheless, I realized how mistaken I was after reading the first page. I have a good amount of concerns and questions regarding this chapter. When Hill discussed the ethical principles and following the laws…
