Should I help a friend who is taking a test by giving him all the answers while he just copies down and doesn't learn anything?

This person is not nik0tine

If you don't give him the answers is he going to learn anything? No, he's just going to get a bad grade. At least this way he can get at least a mildly decent grade. Otherwise, he ends up with nothing.

It's your duty as a friend to help someone out in need, I think.

No. He doesnt learn anything by cheating. Or you could give him the answers and let him not learn anything. And let him go for the rest of his life not knowing anything. :)

I think you should help him out, But you need to let him know you wont keep doing it, dont let him make it a habit of bumming of you, but you should always help out your friends if they need it.

Is it something he needs to learn?

Simple answer is No. If you have to ask if you think it's okay, then I think that you think that answer is also No.

Help them, but dont do it for them. Let them learn for themselves

I agree with this. :)

Your only obligation is to do what you think is right. I don't think what amounts to helping someone lie to their teacher and school can be justified as right, but that's up to you.

It's your duty as a friend to help someone out in need, I thinkYou bastard nik. I did a few and explained them so you learned, and I already gave you a page witht he formula explaining what to substitute and how to do it. God forbid that involve work.

If it's something useful to learn, make him learn it, otherwise, just tell him the answers

Then tell him the answers, it's Quadratic formula. Not important.

How much is he paying you?

What is this, Full House?

Of course you give him the answers. It's not like he's going to learn anything from failing. Except how to fail. Or better ways to cheat.

Word.

Otherwise, my moral compass says don't be a freaking tool. If he's not going to put the work into something and fail because of it, that's his problem, not yours. If you DO give him the answers, what do you think he'll do next time something like this comes up? Have a change of heart and do his work? Please.

It is not your duty as this persons friend. Friendships aren't based on duty to one another. And if you get caught, your ass is in trouble even if you've put the work into learning something.

So yeah, morality and common sense lead me to believe helping him cheat is a dumb idea.
