 Ethics is kind of centered around morals.  A lot of people have different morals and things they think people should believe in and act on.  A main thing in both of those categories would be how you treat people, whether it is physical or emotional.  Ethics is very important to me in life.  Being an ethical person means to do no harm, be truthful, honest and fair.  Other things that could be included in ethics is doing something or saying something to someone for your own benefit, harassment, or taking credit for something you had no part in.  I believe that everyone should be ethical and it is important especially when having a relationship with someone or in the work environment.  If someone isn’t ethical, they could be lying to you or mistreating you which leads to not being able to trust them.  I believe that I am an ethical person.  I think having truthful, honest relationships with people is very important.  I am sure there have been times in my life where I have lied to my parents when I was younger about where I was going or what I was doing.  I was not being truthful, or ethical.  I had the choice to tell them the truth knowing they might say no or lie and know that they will say yes.  I thought that me lying to do what I wanted was ethical because I was getting what I wanted. Certain jobs  have certain ethics in places.  For example, medical ethics is in place so that the medical staff can not lie or mistreat patients and to give the best care to every single person.  A medical staff member could mess up or forget to do something and not tell anyone which would mean they are not being ethical.
