4. In Europe, a woman was near death from cancer. One drug might save her, a form of radium that a pharmacist in the same town had recently discovered. The pharmacist was charging $2000, ten times what the drug had cost him to make. The sick woman's husband, Heinz, went to everyone he knew to borrow the money, but he could get together only about half of what it should cost. He told the pharmacist that his wife was dying and asked him to sell it cheaper or to let him pay later. But the pharmacist said no. The husband got desperate and broke into the man's store to steal the drug for his wife. Should the husband have done that? Why?

11.  Carol Gilligan  Research based on responses by boys  Assumed males & females come to moral conclusions in the same way  Boys: more absolute view, moral rules that apply to every situation  Girls: pay more attention to situational factors (relationships of people etc)

12.  Must teach empathy for others’ feelings  Must teach self discipline of one’s own impulses  Delay small gratification now to enable bigger rewards later  (2:00)
