Answer 2

The mothers point of view is anthropocentric while the fathers point of view is biocentric. Anthropocentrism is an ethical viewing platform in difference of opinion that human beings are the central or most important entities in the world. Anthropocentrism good turn humans as separate from and superior to nature and grasps that human life has intrinsic value though other entities together with animals, plants, mineral, resources and etc. are properties that may rightly be demoralized for the benefit of humanity. Advocates of biocentrism often reassure the preservation of biodiversity, animal rights and environmental protection. Biocentrism does not imply the idea of equality among the animal kingdom for no such view can be perceived in nature.
