Being used for homework

I wouldn’t really call these people my friends, but more my acquaintances that I wish to remain friendly with. They keep asking me for my homework and it’s getting exhausting being used for that, especially on unique tasks or tasks that required a lot effort. So how do I say no when they ask without lying or coming off as rude?

You have a choice - why do you allow these people to crush you (anywhere else it would be called blackmail?) More concerning is why you allow yourself to be used in this way?

Next time make up an excuse - Say you didn't have time to 'complete it' (prepare a rough uncompleted answer and they won't know) but submit the real thing. Next time you have to stay in the library. Next time you forgot your bag. Next time state that you were poorly prepared or too tired to complete it. Flag these issues up to a mentor or tutor - ie that you are being pressured to pass on your homework?

Your behaviour is acquiescent, submissive and concerning. Speak to your tutors so someone can keep an eye open for you? Mild coercion one weeks bigger threats the next? But you have to deal with this. This is how bullies get their way and the mafia get their people under control.

Why do you put all of your hard work in when they can't be bothered it?

Don't do it for anyone else except your own.

Just tell them that you will report it to your head master if they don't stop asking you for help with there homework........
