Deck 10: Biological Aspects of Young and Middle Adulthood

Question 1

Are you taking good physical care of yourself?

Answer 1

Physical care is of very much important in today's lifestyle. One has to maintain his or her health inspite of business and never ending work. As it is a saying that health is wealth and I completely follow this notion and try to work hard and be physically active in all sense.
Thus for physical care I get up early in the morning with sunrise and go to bed early. I exercise, take lots of water and green vegetables and fruits in my daily diet. I am away from alcohol, tobacco, betel nuts, smoking, drugs etc. Thus in all sense it is to be said that I take good physical care of myself and I am happy and content with this.

Question 2

If you were an employer, would you be reluctant to hire someone who was 50 or older?

Answer 2

If I were an employer, I would not be reluctant to hire someone who was 50 or older because if the job requirement is of someone who has a large amount of experience, I would have definitely gone for an individual who has this much experience, no matter how old he or she is.
Thus because age is just number as per my opinion and one should not be judge with his age. Instead the amount of energy and enthusiasm one possess makes him young or old. Thus it is of no value for me to hire an old person or a young one unless the job requirements are in consonance with the age and experience.

Question 3

Do you believe an extramarital affair is sometimes justifiable? If you were married and your spouse had an extramarital affair, would you seek a divorce?

Answer 3

Extramarital affair as per my opinion is not at all justifiable being in a married relationship. I believe that people with extramarital affairs and infidelity should be punished severely legally as well as personally by a spouse. In today's era with lots of independency, infidelity is just a no word and to move on with life is the only option one is left with after getting separated from non- loyal partner.
Thus if I was married and my spouse had an extramarital affair, I would definitely seek a divorce because this is the only option I am left with. Because a spouse can tolerate and adjust with everything in life but is not capable of sharing his partner with someone else. So it is better to move on in life by seeking divorce and ending a relationship instead of stretching it futile.

Question 4

Do you view mate swapping as being unethical?

Question 5

If you knew someone who was HIV positive, would you be hesitant to interact with that person? If you had children, would you be hesitant to have them interact with children who are HIV-positive?

Question 6

Do you believe the United States and other developed countries have a moral obligation to provide assistance to developing countries to empower them to more effectively prevent the transmission of HIV and to treat those who are HIV-positive?
