Children and Cheating

Apr 05, 2013 / Discipline     

My kids have said to me, “Dad, everybody cheats at school!”  Well, it may not be everybody, but a recent survey says three out of four high school students admitted to cheating on an exam at least once in the past year. Their reason? They say that it’s ok to cheat if you need to make a good grade…but it's not. Tell your children why cheating is wrong. First, cheating is stealing…and that’s against the law.  Second, cheating shows misplaced priorities.  Honesty always trumps GPA.  Third, cheating begets cheating.  If you cheat at school, you’ll eventually cheat in other areas of life.  Help your kids to beat cheating with these 10 ways to teach your children to be honest.
