Q: First question is: Aren't oppinions the same as advice? Is an opinion just an indirect way of giving advice?
Second question:
I am considering a career in law as a defense attorney. My Xgirlfriend (XGF) said that defense attorneys cannot ethically do their job in the event that their client is in fact guilty if they know that their client is guilty.
She then said that it is incorrect for me, as a personal trainer, to give unsolicited advice to someone who is performing an exercise improperly(assuming that I know the correct exercise).
My XGF says that advice should only be given when asked for.
But she seems to think that a proactive approach is the only ethical solution to an obvious injustice.
My XGF thinks that the attorney example is somehow different from the exercise example. Is she right?
I feel like she has to be wrong since it is not possible to be proactive and wait for a solicitation for advice.
