This essay is to answer the question: Do I believe Jerry actions were ethical or Unethical in the story Mother in Mannville. I believe Jerry was ethical because during the story Jerry was showing that he was honest, hardworking and caring. The narrator even talks about how much integrity Jerry has because of how he carries himself and how he does his work.
