In another medical situation, when examining the conitued medical support given to Antonio we can frame the issues into the twins philosphical traditions ( Antonio is a 16 year old teen-ager viewed in the wards at UCLA PICU who is comatose, lacking most of his brain function, and whose prognosis is death within several weeks. By the insitance of the mother, Antonio was left on the resperator without a DNR. ) Again the tradition of absolute truth would rely on the sancitiy of life and justify the continued medical support. Though the mother, the moral agent, is the ultimate decision maker, the moral agent can ensure that all the issues are culptivated. The situational ethicist, using the criteria established by A. J. Ayres could not justify the medical resources used on Anthonio.

In this case, the situational ethics, using A. J. Ayres criteria is an acceptable substitute for objective standards. Because the cost/benefit ratio in this case is sided towards societies vested interest, the object standard can be substituted for A. J. Ayres criteria : Antonio will eventually be pronounced medically dead within several weeks, is alreally dead metaphysically, and is straining the medical resources which is already limiting .

logical and free from unacceptable consequences, it can be viewed greater than that of the moral agent.
