Ethical decision making for the given scenario

Using A Model for Ethical Decision Making, which you first covered in your Ethics course, review and analyze the following scenario. Make sure that you follow the model and discuss your decision making along every step of the model. Refer to Code 4.0 of the BACB’s Professional and Ethical Compliance Code and other sections of the code if needed. What did you ultimately decide to do, and why?

Scenario: You are a BCBA working with 8-year-old Jayden who engages in frequent disruption in his elementary school classroom. You’ve conducted an FBA, determined the likely function of his behavior, and recently put an intervention plan in place that his caregivers and school personnel supported. After collecting baseline data, you trained school personnel on how to implement the intervention. Two days after beginning intervention, Jayden’s parents tell you that they want to start giving their son folic acid to make him less irritable. They believe this supplement will help with Jayden’s behavior at home and at school but are vague about what they think the specific effects might be. “One of Jayden’s friends just started taking it, and his parents noticed a huge improvement in his behavior!” they tell you.
