Cheating
Ok, so i cheat. I cheat alot, i cheat at almost anything i do and i try and get away with alot of things i do. This has to do with all schoolwork. I get average grades. But i just wanted to know if this is ok. So we have these vocab books in english, well i took the books the teachers were holding onto from last year and use all the answers. so i never have to fill out the book. But when the test comes i learn the words because i feel stupid if i look off somones paper. But i just like things to be alot easier in school. Like i havent done homework in 2 yrs. Yet i still get average grades and i know everything on the subjects i just think it's very pointless most of the work they make you do. I just wanted to know if im depriving myself at all from learning that well. Im also worried if i start cheating later on in life like with taxes and money and checks and all that and i dont want to end up like that but right now im really good at it and i have never gotten caught. So im just wondering when i should stop, or if im hurting myself in anyway?? Thanks

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
I really think you should stop cheating. It definitely could hurt you later on in life. If you always look for the easy way out of a situation (in this case, homework) then you'll never truly learn the material. A lot of schoolwork does seem pointless, but most of it is taught for a reason. Later on, something that you cheated on could pop up, and since you cheated, you might not know what to do about it. So you really should stop cheating.

Unless you have photographic memory, cheating can be a bad thing. When I was lazy and didn't have time to actually study, I would just use my memory skills and remember it. My memory isn't completely photographic, but it's close. However, now in college, I am finding I am not having time to do so, and feel like I am cheating my education out by rememberization. However, the key to my story that will hopefully help you out is that rememberization and cheating are the same in the sense you are actually not learning much at all. You're just teaching yourself new ways to not learn.
Some school work is pointless, but it has a point in teaching you how to study. It's not that you learn and remember what you studied after the school year is out and you know with every once in your body that most of the stuff you learned is pointless in the real world, but that you took proper care to learn the ways of studying. The further up you go in education, the harder it is to get away with tricks like rememberization and cheating (though rememberization won't get you in trouble).
As with what is said above, yes...continuing to cheat and find new ways about cheating will only lead to you cheating life. Whether it be that you can't pay taxes and you tax invade or something, what you learned in school (which was cheating) can come back to haunt you.
So, learn good study habits.
Study to learn.
And know there's a point to learning pointless crap, whether you know it or not.

Well i don't know what grade you're in, but when it comes to highschool, cheating can really hurt you. Teachers teach you things for a reason... you are might going to need all this stuff when you are older... and by not doing your homework, it can hurt you grades... and it will make it harder for you to get into college! You should try harder, and make a better effort, because college is very important, and in high school, you need to get prepared for college... and you should try your hardest to get good grades!
