Forming Alliances!
This is how my youngest brother talked about his new school year first weeks.
What they do is form a group of the best in each subject, so as my brother put it:
I’m covering English, now we need someone for Physics and Chemistry.
I tried my best not to laugh, and gave a serious speech about you have to study hard and try to understand the subjects. Cheating isn’t the way.
Apparently his group is so popular that people want in, but if you don’t have anything to offer, aka cover a subject, then you have to pay each member of the group -I think he was joking, I hope-
I was to horrified to ask if this was true! Kids today are scary!!! Apparently teachers, look the other way, because they are so hopeless, if they don’t copy out of each others pages, most of them will fail!
I think my brothers are getting these ideas from too much World of Warcraft (WOW), they’re too busy with raids, building strategies and forming alliances!

Back in the old days, guys hated me because I never cheated nor let anyone cheat. I earned my grades by myself and I’m darn proud of myself, unlike MANY I know…
Teachers? Not to generalize, but they don’t give full capacity now so that they could teach privately. And if they didn’t, they just can’t tolerate today’s kids’ behavior (or lack of it?)
Kids? Let them fail. Where are their parents? Outside in malls or God knows where…
Have you seen the teens in Marina? It’s like a freak show! If I had a kid that wanted to look like that, I’d slap him/her silly till s/he’s back to his/her senses.
Don’t blame the kids. Blame the parents (or lack of?).

Allah ye3een the teachers these days, but the fault is shared as you said! So you can’t blame anyone solely.
