These past 8 weeks have truly been  a struggle for me. I've had some stressful moments, however I would like to thank all of my fellow course mates and the instructor for all their words of encouragement, help, and comments. I wish you all the best and I hope we have the chance to work with each other again.

Examining Codes of Ethics

Examining Codes of Ethics

·         We shall honor and respect the diverse backgrounds of our colleagues including such diverse characteristics as sexual orientation, race, national origin, religious beliefs, or other affiliations.

·         We shall not participate in practices that are in violation of laws and regulations that protect the children in our programs.

·         To ensure that each child’s culture, language, ethnicity, and family structure are recognized and valued in the program.

In my professional role each one of these ideas are important to me because they have to do with respect for race, sex orientation, religion beliefs, culture and how people act towards people not just as a professional but as people. I believe that even though the world may not identify each person as equal I do. I respect the person for being a person; I believe that we all should be able to treat each individual because of who they are not because of how they chose to live their lives, who they worship, or where they come from. Real professionals don’t see, color, sex orientation, religion, or culture. Real professional carry themselves with dignity, honor, and respect, not with ignorance. They live and work and treat people respectfully.
