They'll learn a lot more on their own. I know i learned most of what I know by reading outside the assigned material.

I don't get annoyed, but I try not to answer questions in homework, chemistry, engineering, math, or physics if it looks like the asker hasn't even made an attempt. I tend to answer questions where the asker is demonstrating an attempt to learn but is stuck at some concept or has made an error in the work that he or she is showing.
I also check the list of question the asker has posted. Frequently someone would ask multiple questions of their entire problem set and I just don't bother with that person's questions. There are probably people that create a new account each week and post their problem set on a different account each week.
I love helping when I can, but I feel it to be my responsibility to keep yahoo questions as place and a tool for students to get additional clarification from those who could help, not as a place for their homework to be done for them. School teachers have enough to do without having to police every new technology resource that people could use to plagiarize or misrepresent their learning. If I were a parent, I would love it if my child could get additional help in school subjects for which I cannot help, but I wouldn't want them to have their homework done for them.

Yes! I have a college degree and it didn't just appear over the Internet without work. If they don't have enough info to complete their assignment, I like your of reading outside material. Kids, do your own homework.

I have very mixed feelings about that. Mostly I think they should just do their homework. They can get pretty ridiculous about it and YA enables them by making a category called homework help.
On the other hand, there is a massive amount assigned to kids today and some things are nothing but propaganda assigned by their teachers to melt their little minds. Those are the ones where I want to step in and help--kick some propagandist's butt.

men, he's no longer stalking him...Reshef's a nicely-known consumer of Y! and what he writes is definitely ridiculous. He can't write in English to shop his existence, and he needless to say makes use of dissimilar money owed by way of fact he's a so-noted as spectacular contributer. sure, he's amazingly stressful.

No I don't get annoyed I just tell them to do their own homework. I didn't do my daughter's homework for her when she was younger I'm not going to do someone else's brat's homework either.

Well, if people would TEACH them how to do it, they wouldn't have to ask for the answers. I don't give answers on yahoo, but I try to explain how the answer should be found. Who cares HOW they learn, as long as they do learn.

yeah its a little annoying..but who am I to preach-its not my kid doing it and at least they care enough to try and get the answer-they could just not do their homework at all.

I think that's a bit rude. Sometimes you don't get books that give you all of the answers. You don't get books that give you the content for a report. Please think about the questions you ask before you ask them.

Nope- I don't let them use me, so I don't get annoyed by them.
