One day, my friend Tom came to me and asked me to do his homework for him. I was in a dilemma. On one hand, I didn't want to let my friend down. On the other hand, I knew it was wrong to do someone else's homework.
I thought for a while and then said to him, "Tom, I understand that you may be having a hard time with your homework, but I can't do it for you.
