Document Summary
Can"t determine whether behaviour is moral or not unless you look at it in the person"s perspective. First boy is called to dinner and he didn"t know there was a table with cups by the door so he accidentally broke it. Second boy: parents are not around, he will sneak jam out and in the process he breaks the cups. 5-7 year old child will look into consequences will believe that the first boy is naughtier and not take in intentions: expiatory punishment. For the crime arbitrary (not planned for any particular reason: immanent justice. Doctor speeding in the highway to get to a surgery, police officer stopped him and gave him a lecture about why he shouldn"t be speeding. Should have changed the rules and gave him a police escort to hospital: intentions more important than consequences. Will realize the second boy is naughtier: reciprocal punishments. Punishment should fit the crime: no immanent justice.
