Family Ethics

This paper must be no less than 1,000 words and should demonstrate a thorough awareness of the topic as well as the ability to engage in philosophical reasoning. Outside research is not necessary, and in fact, you are strongly encouraged to write this paper with nothing but the course materials and your brain in hand, but if you do use external sources you must provide complete citations. The Assignment: What obligations do we have to the various people in our lives? Are our obligations to family different than our obligations to friends, co-workers, neighbors, etc? Compose your own moral theory of obligation. You may draw from the various theories and principles we have learned throughout the semester to help build your theory. Be as clear and detailed as you can, giving arguments to support your statements. Make sure to acknowledge and respond to potential counterarguments to your view, as well.
