they seriously expected that I wouldn't notice their blatent attempts to cheat on their homework
if you catch them, they may get depressed, and that is not allowed. And since that is not allowed, why should they expect you to notice. I actually read an article a while ago, about some parent that sued a school and teacher because little Johnny had gotten depressed after being caught cheating. That's a result of all the "self-esteem" crap that's been pushed in K-12 education for several decades. The solution is obvious--stop treating them like babies. Expect them to learn and be able to perform, and if they can't do it, tough! My experience is that younger people are not stupid, they're just not challenged. |
