Having the character to consistently live out
values and ethics depends on an individual’s ability to:
- Make important decisions based on reason
rather than feelings.
- Control emotions and manage stress when
moral convictions are tested.
- Foresee a choice’s potential consequences
and devise alternative options.
- Learn from past experience.
Your children may face their biggest ethical
decisions when you are not available to guide them.
Make sure they have the knowledge and skills to
put character in action and make the right decisions.
Recognize Important Decisions
Your children should know that a decision is ethically important if:
- Their choice could hurt them or someone they know.
- Their choice could keep them from achieving
an important goal.
- Their decision could harm someone’s reputation.
