Blog 12 Consequentialism

     A 3 year old girl named Amanda dissapear with out leaving any traits behind. Helene the mother was a drug addict a single mother and who from my point of view she barely cared for her daughter. Amanda's uncle notice and wasn't happy about it. He arrange a whole dramatic plan with the Captain. They stole money and did a whole gang drug deal plan, they stole Amanda and then he try not to be a suspect so he hired private investigators. Who discover all the lies. The uncles only purpose was to give Amanda  a better life and let her have  a better life.
Remy the Captain and Angina are consequentialism   didn't thought of the consequences of how later on Amanda will feel when she eventually finds out where she exactly came from.  in the other hand Patrick wasn't really sure if he can do that.  he thought more about the ethical  morals, where a mother lost a child is a pain that she will never get over. he also felt guilt for knowing the truth but he wanted to return little Amanda back to his mother so he wont have to feel guilt for not letting a child grow and mature with its mother.apparently he was the only one who felt this way and he decided to return Amanda back . This lend to a divorce with his girlfriend/ wife and to later know how Helene was still drinking an leaving Amanda to go out for  a date.
  As a conclusion the movie took Patrick ethical moral and decided to reunited Amanda and her mother. It would've been better if Amanda could've stay with the Captain now she sits alone with some baby sitter while the mother goes out on a date putting the welfare of a child in danger once again. Things like that happen all around the world but we must deal with the consequences.
