Question 1

Explain why not all cultural values and practices are good.

Accepted Answer

Cultural values and practices are not all inherently good-it is important to remember that cultures are constantly changing and that some culturally based attitudes and behaviors could be oppressive or harmful. Although, most of the time culture heals, ethical dilemmas emerge when cultural norms and practices promoted by some members of a group are in direct conflict with the code of ethics of the profession and the law of the land. In this case, the first step is to inform and educate the community about the law and explain how the cultural practice conflicts with it.
