My body my property so never
i protect peopleās rights to be stupid in matters that affect only them
No.
If you only harm yourself (and intend to harm yourself) i donāt think itās morally wrong.
is it a good idea? no. is it morally correct to allow other people to harm themselves when you could prevent it. probably not? but is it morally wrong to harm yourself? i donāt see how it could be

Scenario 1: A Sonās Promise
Weāre now going to present you with three scenarios, and get you to answer two questions about each. As youāll notice, weāre not asking you to make moral judgements here about the events that are depicted in these scenarios. Rather we want to know whether you think any harm occurred and also about how the events make you feel - whether they make you feel āuncomfortableā or ābotheredā or ādisgustedā.
Carl Bianchiās mother was very ill. On her deathbed she asked him to promise that he would visit her grave at least once a week. Carl didnāt want to disappoint his mother, so he promised that he would. But after his mother died, he didnāt keep his promise. He was too busy. He didnāt tell anyone about his promise, and he has never felt guilty for failing to do as he said he would.
a) Was anybody harmed by the fact that Carl failed to keep the promise he made to his mother on her deathbed?
Yes
No
b) Would it have bothered you or made you feel uncomfortable to have watched Carl promising his mother that heād visit her grave at least once a week if you knew perfectly well that he wouldnāt keep his promise?
Yes
No
