Today, two students in my class were blatantly cheating on a timed test. Simple. Learn the multiplication facts and you're golden! After the incident, I spoke to my 'authority' regarding the situation - - fully expecting both children to receive after school detention. Surprisingly, she didn't understand why I was upset with them ... "I should be PROUD of them!" "The boy had allowed the girl to copy from his test because he was being KIND to her. He understood she had trouble with the task and wanted to help her." (WHAT!!! Are you SERIOUS?!!!) Then she said, "I should be PROUD of her because she has become academically successful by learning ways to cope with her disability."
WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?? When is wrong WRONG?? The last time I checked, kind people don't help you by cheating!
The day I become PROUD because someone CHEATS is the day I need to say good-by to education! Whatever...

I CANNOT believe this...Why give the dang tests? Just give one big one to the whole class and they can work on it together. WHAT?
Where was that authority figure when I was in school?
This is kinda the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
