\u201cDon\u2019t let my son dress up as a girl!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
You are to analyze this case study about Mr. Jackson \u2013 the father of 4-year-old Victor-who insists his son not be permitted to play with clothes or accessories typically associated with girls and women.\u00a0 This issue involves a conflict between a request made by a family member and what the teacher believes is good practice.<\/p>\n
The Situation:<\/p>\n
\u00a0Victor enjoys playing dress-up in the dramatic play area.\u00a0 He is a quiet and reserved child who usually follows other children\u2019s lead.\u00a0 But when engaging in dramatic play, Victor\u2019s leadership shines as he collaboratively creates scenarios with his classmates.\u00a0 He is particularly adept at playing characters such as firemen, princesses, bumblebees, and moms. One day Mr. Jackson, Victor\u2019s father, who rarely comes to the center, arrives to pick up Victor and sees that he is in a pink princess costume.\u00a0 He curtly tells Marge, Victor\u2019s teacher, that he does not want her to allow Victor to play in the dress-up area in the future.\u00a0 He then orders Victor to change, and they quickly leave, with Victor hanging his head.\u00a0 Marge is taken aback by Mr. Jackson\u2019s behavior.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The center is devoted to fostering relationships with all of its families, and Marge has recently made great strides in attracting Victor\u2019s family to potlucks and school workdays.\u00a0 The staff collectively believe that in addition to building children\u2019s imaginations, dramatic play enhances their social communication skills and is an integral part of the learning process that gives children opportunities to develop abstract thinking, literacy, math, and social studies skills.<\/p>\n
What should Marge, an ethical teacher, do?<\/p>\n
\u00a0The first question you should ask yourself is, \u201cDoes this issue concern right and wrong, rights and responsibilities, human welfare, or individuals\u2019 best interests?\u201d If you answer no to all of these questions, it is not an ethical issue and you will have Marge address it as she would handle any workplace issue.\u00a0 If you answer yes to any of the areas, she is facing an ethical issue.\u00a0 You will need to decide whether the issue is an ethical responsibility or an ethical dilemma. Once you make that decision, you need to:<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
1) Describe the conflicting responsibilities<\/p>\n
2) Brainstorm possible resolutions<\/p>\n
3) Consider ethical finesse<\/p>\n
4) Identify the ideals or principles within the NAYEC Code of Ethical Conduct that provides guidance<\/p>\n
5) Decide on a justifiable course of action<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
