A moral skill is simply the amalgamation of certain skills for the purpose of acting according to certain principles or rules, such as obligation, duty, right and wrong, and so forth. Moral development is the process through which children develop proper attitudes and behaviors toward other people in society, based on social and cultural norms, rules, and laws. Moral values such as integrity, determination, loyalty, truthfulness, honesty, giving respect to each other etc. should be inherited by every individual. As stated earlier moral values help us distinguish between what's right and wrong, good or bad for you as well as society.

For example, someone's morals might indicate they're opposed to murder. That's a pretty general rule of thumb. But what about something more mundane? While one person's morals might tell them not to gossip, another person's morals might be quite different. They might not consider gossip to be a bad thing. Consider the following examples of morals and see how many line up with your core values and beliefs.
