,CSP2601/102/0/2023QUESTION 1 [10 marks]
Read the incorrect statements provided below. In each instance,
argue why the statement is incorrect. Each correct answer is worth
two marks.
1.1 The youth have a responsibility to tell others what beliefs and
opinions they should hold.
This statement is incorrect because having a responsibility to tell
others what beliefs and opinions they should hold goes against the
fundamental principles of freedom of thought and expression. Each
individual has the right to their own beliefs and opinions, and it is
not the responsibility of the youth or anyone else to dictate what
others should believe. Encouraging open dialogue and respectful
discussions can allow for the exchange of ideas and perspectives,
but imposing beliefs and opinions on others is not a responsibility
that anyone should have.
1.2 Fourteen-year-old learners may work as cashiers in shops after
school hours.
This statement is incorrect because the legal age for employment
varies by country and state. In many places, the legal age to work is
16, with limited work hours and restrictions on the types of jobs
that can be performed by individuals under the age of 18. Even if a
14-year-old is able to obtain a job, it is unlikely that they would be
hired as cashiers in shops, as these positions often require
customer service skills and the ability to handle financial
transactions, which may be impractical for someone of that age.
1.3 Non-maleficence involves acting in manner that is beneficial to
the person involved.
This statement is incorrect because non-maleficence actually refers
to the ethical principle of "do no harm." It emphasizes the
importance of avoiding actions or interventions that could cause
harm to others. Non-maleficence requires healthcare professionals
, to prioritize the well-being and safety of their patients above all
else, and to minimize the risks of any potential harm. It does not
necessarily involve actively benefiting the person involved,
although that may be a separate ethical principle called
beneficence.
1.4 Teacher counselling involves the use of the same counselling
approach for all learners, regardless of their backgrounds, so that
the process is fair and equal
This statement is incorrect because teacher counselling does not
involve the use of the same counselling approach for all learners.
Teacher counselling is a form of support provided by teachers to
individual students or small groups of students. It aims to help
students with their academic, social, emotional, or behavioral
needs. Since each student is unique and may have different
backgrounds, experiences, and challenges, it is important for the
teacher to tailor the counselling approach to meet the specific
needs of each student. Using the same counselling approach for all
learners, regardless of their backgrounds, would not be fair or
equal as it may not effectively address the individual needs of each
student. Therefore, teacher counselling involves adapting the
approach to ensure fairness and equality by considering the unique
characteristics and circumstances of each student.
1.5 A solution-focused approach to counselling involves a search for
events that will show the belief that “something is wrong” with a
person to be false.
This statement is incorrect because a solution-focused approach to
counselling does not involve searching for events that will show the
belief that "something is wrong" with a person to be false. In fact, a
solution-focused approach focuses on finding solutions and
promoting change rather than dwelling on problems or searching
for evidence of a person's perceived flaws or faults. It is more
concerned with exploring the client's goals, strengths, and
