Thanks, Seshat. I did submit it for review by my mentor; I'm kinda hoping she tells me I can end sessions early with students like this >.< -

GIVE ME THE ANSWER SO THAT I CAN WRITE IT DOWN AND NOT ACTUALLY STORE THE INFORMATION IN MY BRAIN OR TRANSFER ME TO SOMEONE WHO WILL!!!
That's pretty much all I got from that. Kid was being lazy and just wanted you to hand over the answer so he could go play videogames or something.Getting offended is a great way to avoid answering questions that make you sound dumb. - exmocaptainmoroniComment

I believe the term is called Learned Helplessness. Many SC's seem to exhibit this as well.Quoth XCashier View Post
Idiot was trying to get you to do the work for him. I've known far too many people like that. They feign helplessness or ignorance, and needle and cajole you until you give in and do the task yourself just to shut them up.To right the countless wrongs of our days... We shine this light of true redemption, that this place may become as paradise...Oh, what a wonderful world such would be...Comment

This, exactly this. I would've called him out on his bullshit and told him I'm not paid to do his homework for him.Quoth Mystic View Post......../\

Wow, that uh really boggles my mind.
The most perplexing this for me though is: The question wasn't hard at all. I mean any kid worth their salt should have been able to BS their way through it in less than ten minutes.

It's easy if you 1) understand the premise to begin with (which is debatable in this case) and 2) care to understand (which is laughable here)Quoth CrazedClerkthe2nd View PostComment

That sucks, your employer has to be aware that situations like this happen so why won't he/she let you call out people like him?Quoth Kheldarson View Post......../\

We're allowed to end sessions if it's extreme abuse, but I'm not sure if this crossed to that level because he didn't curse.Quoth Zellie Crescent View Post
But unless they're abusive or uncommunicative or seriously playing around, we're supposed to work with them.Comment

I don't think he needs any help in not answering the question-seems to be doing a good enough job of that himself.Quoth Kheldarson View PostThe Copyright Monster has made me tell you that my avatar is courtesy of the wonderful Alice XZ.And you don't want to annoy the Copyright Monster.Comment
