Ethics 101
Last spring quarter my friend Jen, a bio major, took a bioethics class for fun. She used to show me a bunch of situations to see what I thought of them. For example: There is a couple that gave birth to a child without a brain. They decided to donate it's organs to those in need. The problem was, the organs could not be donated right away because they were too small. The child would have to be put on life support until the organs grew large enough to harvest. To some, this would be unethical and hence should not be done. What do you think?
