Billy-Lynn the Bear Says "speak the Truth" Gloria Bamberg- Merritt

This book is evidence base. Lawrence Kohlberg's stages of moral development constitute an adaptation of a psychological theory. The theory holds that moral reasoning, a necessary condition for ethical behavior, has six developmental stages and three levels, each more adequate at responding to moral dilemmas than its predecessor. Kohlberg determined that the process of moral development was principally concerned with justice and that it continued throughout the individual's life. Kohlberg's Moral Development determines that there is a hierarchy of cognitive development. It is necessary to understand what is good and what is bad. Understanding morals and values is an important part of the journey. It allows the individual to realize the necessity of the good actions to be followed or to sustain oneself in a healthy manner. Morals and values are intended or expected to keep us on the path of truth, honesty, and genuineness. VALUES are your personal experiences SAFEGUARDING your welling beings. It's a set of rules that are internal and prevent harm. The strong moral compass of harmony, truthfulness, compassion, honesty, forgiveness etc. activate the compass within and GUIDEs the individual on a journey, of staying on the course of value building recognizing what is right and what is wrong.
