TASK NUMBER 1: Case Analysis.


 Marlon is a soldier. During the war in Marawi, he suffered from Post-traumatic stress
disorder (PTSD). He was discharged from service and was sent home.
 One night, he dreamed he was being attacked by the ISIS in Marawi. So, he stood up,
took his pistol, ran outside and began shooting. As a result, he killed an entire family of
five who happened to be strolling at that time.
 Is Marlon morally liable? Why?
Making moral judgements regarding a person's moral responsibility for her conduct, as
well as holding others and ourselves accountable for our actions and the consequences of our
actions, is an important and common element of our moral practices and interpersonal
relationships.
The judgment that a person is morally responsible for her actions entails attributing certain
powers and capacities to that person, and viewing her behavior as arising from the fact that the
person has, and has exercised, these powers and capacities. Whatever the accurate explanation of
the powers and capacities in question their possession qualifies an agent as morally responsible
in a broad sense that is, as someone who may be morally responsible for specific acts of agency.
 Is Marlon criminally liable? Why?(answer in essay form, using a minimum of 6
sentences for each question)
This refers to individuals who are truly and directly involved in the act's execution. In
every crime, there must always be those who carry out the deed that leads to the crime. They
could be a single individual or a group of people.
Unless the latter has acted during a lucid interval, an imbecile or mad individual. A person
who is criminally responsible for a felony is also civilly responsible. In general, a person who is
criminally accountable is also civilly liable for their actions. If a person who commits a crime is
mentally ill, he is immune from prosecution. An omission is a failure to act, which has different
legal ramifications than positive behavior. In criminal law, an omission is an actus reus and will
only result in culpability if the law imposes a duty to act and the defendant fails to fulfill that
duty.
Task Number 2:
 How should we deal with insane people when they become violent? (at least 6 sentences,
essay form)
Many family are forced to control, manage, or tolerate behaviors that are frightening,
unpleasant, disruptive, or at the very least annoying in people with major mental illnesses. As a
result, psychiatric specialists frequently perceive a patient's family members as sources of help
because they can serve as informants and co-therapists at home.
Family members must be in the best possible social and psychological condition. It has been
stated that a family member's reduced function adds to the load of other family members, causing
other family members to have a critical attitude toward the patient. In some situations, such
criticism might result in the patient's sickness relapsing or the family becoming overwhelmed by
the patient's disruptive behavior. Social assistance is critical for the mental illness-affected
family's well-being. According to a study, families should play a significant part in assisting
relatives who have mental illnesses, and collaborative planning should include ways to help
family members and customers deal with stigma. There is a link between carers' social support
and the stigma associated with mental illness in relatives. For example, a study looking at the
relationship between stigma, depressive symptoms, and coping among caregivers discovered that
stigma can destroy family caregivers' morale and cause them to withdraw from possible allies.
Task Number 3: answer in essay form (6 sentences minimum )
 Suggest practical tips to overcome ignorance.
We have a tendency to view uneducated individuals as arrogant and short-sighted. They don't
perceive the "big picture" and instead discourage overthinking and encourage simple
explanations and answers rather than taking the time to describe a problem, consider several
views, and test ideas. We concentrate on "acting ignorant," or the social expression of ignorance
in the form of actions, rather than on the ignorance itself.
As a form of defense, people "act ignorance." Not only do they not want to expend the
energy of thinking, but they also do not want others to do so. They don't want to appear illiterate.
They also don't want their aesthetics, opinions, or morals questioned. They want those
safeguarded and preserved at all costs. To accomplish this, they attack those who issue the
challenges. Criticism is interpreted as a personal attack on their views, aesthetics, or morals. To
act less stupid, you must first acknowledge your own inclinations and then develop new
behaviors to replace the "acting ignorant" ones.
Because thoughts and expectations lead to conduct, this is how you become less ignorant.
You become conscious of others' truths by "installing" new concepts, values, beliefs, and
aesthetics. At the very least, this insight will make you more cautious about declaring your
beliefs as facts and your ideals and aesthetics as universal (or as more important).
Task Number 4
 There is a suggestion to lower the age of criminal liability in the Philippines, from 15
years old to 12 years old. This is to discourage children from joining criminal syndicates
that might use them to undertake criminal acts. Do you favor this move? Why?

- Yes, because they differ in their physical and psychological development, children in
conflict with the law deserve to be treated differently compared to adults in the criminal
justice system. Setting the minimum age of criminal responsibility at too low an age is
not compatible with the evolving capacities of children. Further modifications will only
help to stifle the system for preventing and rehabilitating juvenile offenders. Syndicate
groups that exploit children to commit crimes for them will instead utilize and abuse even
younger children to commit their wrongdoings if the minimum age of criminal
accountability is lowered.
Task number 5: answer in essay form (6 sentences minimum)
 What is the value of ethics FOR YOU?
Ethics contributes to the understanding of human morals by defining notions such as right
and wrong, good and evil, vice and virtue, and so on. When in doubt, we recall the moral and
ethical ideals we've been taught from childhood, and our ideas almost immediately become clear.
While the ethics have been established for the benefit of society and the overall well-being
of the individuals who live there, they can also be a source of dissatisfaction for some. This is
due to the fact that some people have gone too far with them. Women in Indian society, for
example, were once considered to be homemakers. They were not permitted to labor outside the
home or to dispute the family's male members' decisions. While women are now granted the
opportunity to go out and work and make their own decisions, many individuals still adhere to
the ethics and customs established centuries ago. They still feel that a woman's place in the world
is in the kitchen, and that it is unethical for her to work outside of the home.
While ethics and moral principles must be instilled in people in order for society to work
smoothly, they must also be redefined from time to time in order for individuals and society to
grow and develop properly.
