Seems like some of these questions are kids doing their homework assignments. Does anyone feel guilty helping them out (or refuse to help them due to the situation)?
i guess we can all make our own choices i try not to give the answer but rather point to ways that the person wwho asks can get the answer on their own.i don't feel that i really need the best answer points on an online site but would like to think if one of my kids were asking they were being
helped to gain the knowledge to solve it on their own.
If I see several questions from the same user, or several equations in the same question, I'll help with 1 or 2, explaining in detail how to do it, and then say "now you try the rest".
So no, I don't feel guilty.
If it's obvious they are just being lazy, I won't do it. But a lot of people on here are actually stumped and are looking for help, not just being lazy...so I feel good about helping them.

If they are coming to yahoo then I assume they are not receiving help at home or at school so o help as much as I can.
