As a result, it is essential for people to value the essence of ethics and respect for other people. In the case provided, we are presented with two parties that are a complete opposite of each other’s character. As much as mutual understanding is enhanced through the efforts of more than one party, it is worth acknowledging that Jeffrey Lyndell lacks essential characters that define good personality (Mintz & Morris, 2014).
