Fernando Savater, English writer and philosopher devotes an essay to his teenage son, Ethics for Amador (1991) to guide you to seek the good life after learning and wise use of freedom, making you want to choose what agrees to maintain community living, respect for others, gain the respect of others and feel good about himself, without disturbing our conscience. Savater maintains a conversational tone, humor and case shows the history of the world to raise ethical awareness in their child. Aware asks the difficult task Amador patience to let him present his ideas and advises you to benefit from these lessons to trust himself, his intelligence and instincts of love. Savater wants to see his son that ethics is part of every vital impulse channeled by the know how to choose good actions. Motivates you to strive for virtue after the thoughtful analysis of the impact or advantage which creates its behavior, for himself and his environment.
Practical knowledge for life: Ethics provides the possibility of distinguishing between good and evil as desirable versus what is not convenient, you choose how to act freely in response to situations that befall us. Savater adopts the principle Kant's categorical imperative, which is due because the action is prescribed as a good in itself and recognize it is natural to human consciousness. Ethics is taken as an exercise to recognize the virtue or the fault of the actions that are potentially in the future of our behavior and we have the opportunity to moderate the sieve of ethics, because this is a feature that identifies us as human. Savater
emphasizes the authority and moral weight of mandates, if they are orders, they may comply for fear of punishment or hope of a prize, if they can keep habits to avoid out of the norm of community, they come from outside our consciousness and will; while the whims and cravings come from within. The rate at which you must appeal Amador is what will prevent vice is a slave, you must follow the actions good in themselves as a result of growing their reflection on their actions and what moves to perform them. 
The good life is based on dignity: Savater appeals to the conscience of Amador good not to take life by the power for himself, only to accumulate possessions, control individuals and be feared by others, that's not good life because the lack of respect and spontaneous love of others is invaluable. The example to avoid is the case of Citizen Kane by Orson Welles, who sacrifices human relations and dies for the money missing retrieve his sled Rosebud who had a child, instead of their expensive treasures. The only criminal orders they deserve disobedience contrary to the objective must be to live the way to human development. Conscience teaches how to measure the use of freedom, allows you to choose the way with creativity, reflection helps because we live in a world of language, constantly learn in our daily lives and freedom to decide and realize what is deciding. Teaches that living well is to treat people like human beings, with dignity, caring for them, what they want and need instead of exploiting them for money and power. You receive what you sow in life, people hardly battered love will return, if not abuse indifference. Lower living existence is subordinated to the interests of human relations material, leading to stop growing, a mediated without valuing the human being itself, as part of a community that interacts and responds to stimuli favorable or adverse. Approaching
awareness of the other: Humans are created equal in dignity but maintain cultural differences are respected necessary to sustain the dialogue, diversity and plurality of lifestyles does not need a sudden raid to be understood, differences enrich the quality of life. The person with moral taste feels responsible for his actions and is disgusted by the immorality, who does not feel this is a fool as to moral, regardless of their abilities in any other field. Remorse is the discontent caused by the consciousness does see the error of wrongdoing, and further reflection that we realize as we move to achieve the good life. Freedom does see the credit or blame for our actions, and sets a face of the individual to society by doing good or evil. The fall in vice can come to seek a selfish pleasure rather than knowing how to enjoy our surroundings, but the trend is also bad actions of the human being, so nobody should be judged definitely wrong there greatest virtue in redirecting the wrong man, taking him to the living with the human group rather than scorn and punishment. Infer the value of human rights is a challenge for man, not enough to enact, we must enforce them because they are an imperative, and to get a glimpse of the idea of \u200b\u200bgood is understood that this gift is collective, there is a relationship synergy (imports plus all interaction with all parties that these inmates) in the welfare of the planet and humanity, the shortcomings of others will eventually affect the more fortunate, the damage to a remote region of the planet that is of civilization will affect the biosphere in whole. With this consciousness that knows us put in place the other avoid dull the joy of life making every individuality participate in the political community of men based on freedom, justice and care.
Conclusion: Savater Amador opens awareness to the assimilation of ethics, pointing out that the moral and upright in the actions need not be part of the boring side of life. The writer wants his son to take ethics as part of their lives, build their image in the community based on freedom of being able to choose virtue ignoring the excesses that ruin relationships. Discover causality by the interaction of all events and human actions in the world, evil and selfishness only man away from the benefit of community life and political decisions and care for the environment have a global effect, the neglect and the loss of a region back to the whole planet. Savater
want the adolescent to develop ethical intelligence, to direct their actions according to the community how to live well in human beings. ETHICS
