[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, among all the kids in general, without regard for cultural background,* who is responsible when kids cheat? Parents, kids, TJ staff, teachers? I've seen all of the above blamed here.

I think it comes down what I posted below. We can't slough off the blame on others, we all have to do our part. And I think the only way TJ can do its part is if they know that the parents will back them up, every time, and not make excuses for kids.

Agreed.  But the school should take the lead and set the direction while looking for support.  The kids are responsible for cheating because they are the perpetrators.  Can't blame anyone else.  Allowing this to happen without consequence is the school environment.  They need to own the prevention part of the deal (working together with parents, etc of course).

* I think we should stop blaming cultural background or using that as an excuse. People from countries that drive on the left don't come here and try to do that here. When you're in a different place, you follow the rules of that place.

Exactly.  However, people will do what they can get away with if rules are not enforced.  First make them, then enforce them.
