Answer

• Harmful components in nicotine such as cyanide can be transferred to the baby via breast milk

• Nicotine can be absorbed by the intestine of the baby to result into apnea and vomiting

• Interference with normal lung development of the baby

Explanation

Nicotine is a harmful chemical found naturally in tobacco plants and could be readily absorbed into the milk of a breastfeeding mother from her blood. Nicotine in a baby’s milk can further result into raised heart rate of the baby, disturbed sleep due to the stimulant effect of nicotine, and vomiting /nausea especially if the mother is a regular smoker.

Cause fussy behaviour, breast refusal, excessive crying, and increased colic in mothers who smoke more than five cigarettes per day. Lead to vomiting and nausea if a mother is smoking 20 cigarettes or more daily. Increase baby heart rate. It’s just not a good idea to breastfeed your baby if you smoke.

Discuss Kohlberg's theory of Moral Development found in chapter 9 p. 296. Read the moral dilemma the man named Heinz faced (also
Semmy [17]

Although the situation that Heinz faces is hopeless and for this reason it motivated his desperate action, I believe that his place, I would look for other people who manufacture the medicine, for not believing that breaking into a property and practicing theft is the correct thing. If I didn't find another supplier of the drug, I would try to make deals with the first, even if I owed a large amount of money.

I would do this to keep myself away from illegalities that could make me a criminal and keep me away from my wife who needs care.

According to Kohlberg's theory of moral development, we can say that my thinking fits into the conventional level and stage 4.

The conventional level is characterized by the individual's desire to remain within morality, obeying the established rules of social conduct. Stage 4, within this level, refers to individuals who want to keep their actions within the concepts of obedience to authority and social order.
