In class, we discussed what where the 3 IB learner's profile qualities wich best represent the unit we are studying.
In the case of our class with Ms. Lydia, whe choose the following three: Reflective, principled and balanced.
Personally I don't agree with all of them, the one that says reflective should be replaced for open-minded, and balanced for caring. The one that fits better I think is the one that says "Principled". According to the definition that's in the wall of our class it's says that a principled person is the one who act with integrity,honesty, fairness, justice and respect for the dignity of the individual, groups and communities. This one is very related to the Down Syndrome article("respect of the individual"). Open- minded: In the abort case it suits perfectly beacause an open minded person would be open to perspectives, and ready to listen any other comments and points of view about the abort.A Caring person would show empathy and respect for the opinion for the feelings of the parents, and doctors choices.
