It seems you have reached the final fork in the road, my young Jedi. I think I was in my mid-20's when it hit me that everything from here on out would be nothing more than a result of how my personal philosophy interacted with the world around me...
It all boils down to personal choice- are we (as individuals) going to choose to follow our intinctual drive for instant gratification (damn the long term after-effects), or are we going to evaluate our decisions before hand and base our choices on reason and rationality...?
Is it so difficult to understand why some people think it would be ok for so many people to get into such a small boat, while other people fundamentally understand what a very bad idea it is...?
... it has to do with cognition.
Why am I wasting my time here with all you Hawaiian shirt wearing, Jimmie Buffet listening goons?
Reflection of self
Yes its very difficult, its actually mind boggling. The parent is responsible for that child and this is a case of negligence. This parent or owner of the boat could possibly face felony charges in America especially if alcohol was involved!! This outcome could have been avoided and if that's the case then the only thing this could have been or could be is negligence.
Train of thought. I dont think it has to do with cognition or lack of. Their brain is cognitive they understand what they are doing but for them THEIR CULTURE says it's normal to put 19 people on a boat. This comes back to learned behavior. Ive learned that if I put 19 people on a boat here in Phx and it sinks and someone dies I could be potentially facing charges and or be found liable in civil court. Cant you be a complete moron and still have brain cognition?!
Take it easy my mom is a Parrot Head :cheers:
