An ethical dilemma is like a kind of problem where you have to decide between two different choices, but both choices could be wrong. So it's like a situation where you have to decide what is right and what is wrong, but you don't know what the right or wrong answer is. For example, maybe you work in a store and a customer comes in and wants to buy something that costs more than they have enough money for. You don't want to take the money from them, but you also want to make sure you do your job and make the store money. That's an ethical dilemma because you have to decide what is the right thing to do but there isn't an easy answer.
