Section 6: Ethical practice 6.1 Ethical issues in working with children and young people 1. Explain that working with children and young people and their families can present complex challenges. Applying policies and procedures may not be easy. Workers may experience conflict between the rights and interests of different parties. These can be described as ‘ethical issues’ as they involve trying to find solutions in the face of competing concerns. Ethical issues can be identified even where workers are seeking to give paramount consideration to the safety, welfare and wellbeing of children and young people, as identifying the options that will optismise safety, welfare and wellbeing may not be straight-forward. 2. Examples of common ethical issues in the context of working with children, young people and their families include: Choosing between several options none of which is entirely adequate to address a child or young person’s needs (i.e. what is least bad); Deciding how much to take into account a child, young person or parent’s difficult life experiences when determining realistic expectations and responses; Recognising that we do not have perfect knowledge about an individual’s capacity or resilience; Causing distress in the hope of doing good in the long term, either to the person who is experiencing distress, or to someone else. 6. 2 Frameworks for ethical thinking 1. Because it is recognised that ethical dilemmas are common when working with children, young people and families various frameworks have been developed to promote ethical practice. These frameworks assist by: Focusing attention on the most vulnerable parties – children and young people; Providing a way of assessing competing ideas, such as ‘sticking by your mates’ or ‘giving people a chance’; Providing ways of identifying and describing dilemmas, thus making it easier to talk about them, think clearly about them and seek support to address them. 3. Ask: ‘What codes of conduct or sets of principles do you draw on to address ethical dilemmas in your work?’ Keep Them Safe CHCCHILD401A – Facilitator’s Manual © The NSW Technical and Further Education Commission (TAFE NSW – Industry Skills Unit, Meadowbank, 2010) 45
