Starting in 1961, the Freedom Riders, comprised of African- and white-Americans, protested segregation by getting on Greyhound buses in Washington, DC (where segregation was not part of the law) and riding them into the Southern US states, where segregation prohibited people of different racial groups from riding buses together. In the outtake of the The Freedom Riders documentary, "The Young Witness," we see Janie Forsyth McKinney remembering her childhood experience with the Freedom Riders, and describing the psychology of her community members as "dichotomous." When her community members stop the Freedom Riders' bus and firebomb it, she defied them and brought water to the protesters who were leaving the bus, starting with a woman who reminded her of Pearl, the woman who raised her. How does her community respond?

c. They take her actions as an indication of severe moral failure. They decide to try her as an adult, instead of as a child.

Deontological: action is considered morally good because of some characteristic of the action itself, not because the product of the action is good. Deontological ethics holds that at least some acts are morally obligatory regardless of their consequences for human welfare. Descriptive of such ethics are such expressions as “Duty for duty’s sake,” “Virtue is its own reward,” and “Let justice be done though the heavens fall.”(Encyclopædia Britannica. 2014)
Moral laws are general rather than fixed. Unlike the Divine Command theory of ethics, Natural Law ethics holds that morality is universal, not at the will of God but at the will of reason.

Research has shown that there is a lack of health care systems in place for children and adolescents with mental health problems. Statistically, research also shows that of the 150 million children in the country, 25% have psychological issues for which they have sought primary health care (Tolan & Dodge, 2005). Although the number of children and youth with mental health problems is increasing gradually, there is still a lack of treatments and supports in the health care systems. For example, one of the many issues is the lack of consideration for the child’s and his or her family’s life. Often, that family has failed to follow up with the treatment since the intervention is interfering with the family’s work life. Another problem is the lack of communication between the physician and the family, such as advice about risk factors that may be related to mental health problems. The family often doesn’t know how to deal with their children’s mental health problems, which could lead to them not recognizing the issues. Without having much knowledge regarding the mental health problem, there could be a delay in taking their children to intervention (Tolan & Dodge, 2005).
Without the proper treatment and health care system in place, there will be a lack of understanding about ways that the community, family, school and other authority could help children or adolescents that are struggling with mental health issues. Children, especially adolescents, have faced discrimination because of their mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. Without knowledge of prevention or intervention strategies, those who are struggling with mental health might not know the way to seek help; the only person they can turn to is themselves. Feeling that they are alone in the battle with their mental health, children and adolescents might seek out the alternative way to end their problem; suicide. According to Kõlves and De Leo, in 2004 one of the leading causes of death among young females aged 15-19 years old was suicide, which was also the third most common cause of death among males in the same age group (2015). It is also well known that suicide attempts among adolescents are often closely linked to mental disorders (Groholt & Ekberg, 2009). With that being mentioned, it is imperative that children and adolescents get the treatment that they deserve regarding their mental health problems. It’s also crucial for physicians to educate the family of the children or adolescents to be aware of signs of a possible suicide attempt, as well as understand the different manifestations of mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and others.
