1.Do you think the researchs behaved ethically with regard to Genie? Explain

I think that research were trying to understand what Genie was going through, but mostly for them Genie was a little girl with no sense what is going around her. And that is why they did this research to maybe little bit help her to speak without being scared if somebody is going to abuse her in the most awful way.

2.Some have argued that Genie would have been better off in an institution than with the researchers. Explain whether you agree or disagree with that statement and why.

I agree and I think that for Genie was better off being in the institution than being research to someone. Because Genie like all of us she is a human being. Maybe she is different then some people but that doesn't mean that she is some thing to be research.That is why I agree wiith this statement then for a Genie is better to be in an institution.

3.Obviously Genie needed very specialized caree that most foster parents would be unable\unwilling to provide.What should be done in cases like Genie's?

I think that Genie's foster parents are just bad like her real parents.Because a person like Genie needs to be provide with every specilized care like everyone who has some flaw. And not to be hit or abused for making some sound or trowing up. A good parent need to have understanding and patience with someone like Genie.
