The worth attached to the feelings experienced by Riley's parents is an example of "an intrinsic value".


There are two thoughts of intrinsic value. Something can be said to have intrinsic value on the off chance that it is either:

Valuable in itself

Valued by somebody for its own particular purpose

On the off chance that something has intrinsic value in the principal sense, this implies the universe is by one means or another a superior place for that thing existing or happening.

This first thought of intrinsic value is questionable. Numerous philosophers would state that it looks bad to discuss things being significant in themselves except if they are really esteemed by somebody. Indeed, even delight or joy are just inherently significant in light of the fact that they are experienced by somebody.
