I realize that there are a lot of pressures placed on kids to do well in school, but these kids should have known better... At one point, one kid sent a text message to the other saying he had a test on a book he hadn't read and needed a copy of the test in advance. That's just plain laziness coupled with a lack of a good moral compass. Just another example of the lack of proper teaching in the home. And now sadly, these boys, the one in particular, may spend many years in jail. This should be a big lesson to parents that, if they truly love their children, they will instruct them in proper behavior, and that means living it and being there, involved directly in their lives, even when they are teens.
