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.

Social Media Discussion

What about Fortnight?
This was a comment form a student on the Video assignment
I am not sure I could come up with a direct link that I know of about social media and the works of memory but I can think of how social media personally affects my memory. During the Talk Peter Doolittle mentions that we could really only hold 4 things in our short term memory ( 3:00). With this being said when I scroll through social media I will get reminded of thing to do or that interest me. I will countie to scroll before trying to go look for the information I need, but with in a few seconds and scrolls later I can not remember at all what I wanted to look up. So I usually start all over and try to jog my memory or rethink if it when I saw the original trigger picture or post. Because I sometimes skim books or post my brain does not fully capture what I am attempting remember or learn.

explain the reasons why we should protect free speech; then explain an example of a situation where it seems appropriate to limit protection of free speech for the sake of the greater good. In what sense do we embrace deontology when we protect free speech, and in what sense to we embrace utilitarianism when we decide there are some situations where free speech should be limited? Be specific and contemporary with your examples. Use recent news.
