Discussion1: Personal and Professional Social Work Values
 
Heterosexism is defined as “thediscrimination or prejudice by heterosexuals against homosexuals” (merriam-webster.com) and is predicated on the belief that being heterosexual is the norm and the only accepted type of relationship.
 
Everyday heterosexism is exemplified in our media, our policies, and daily practices. By making these assumptions, social workers can be in part culpable for the oppression and marginalization experienced by the LGBTQ community.
 
As a profession, social work embraces diversity and strives to ensure equal rights for all. The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) is committed to supporting the needs of these groups and, in turn, they created the National Committee on Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Issues. During this week’s discussion you will be asked to consider how one’s own personal views on sexual orientation may clash with the profession’s stance.
 

Post a scenario of how a social worker’s personal, ethical, and moral values in relation to the LGBTQ community might conflict with those of their clients.
Explain the distinction between personal ethics and values and professional ethics and values evident in the social work profession in addressing this community.
Be specific and explain how this distinction relates to the scenario you posted.
Also explain how prejudice and bias might create barriers to fulfilling your professional responsibility to the LGBTQ community.

Discussion 3: Bullying: Cycle of Events
 
Bearing witness to trauma has its own set of consequences. Watching repeated episodes of bullying can evoke strong emotional and behavioral responses from an adolescent. During the impressionable stage of social development in adolescents, these experiences can contribute to a change in perception about the ways people should and do treat each other. Furthermore, ongoing exposure to this behavior can jeopardize an adolescent’s healthy social development. For this Discussion, consider how the act of bullying experienced by one adolescent may change the experience of another who witnesses it.
 

Post a scenario that illustrates how bullying experienced by one adolescent may change the experience of another who witnesses it.
Then address the availability of any social work intervention, skill, or practice that might change this cycle of events.
