"Dear Dan, I'm a student at school and my best friend found the test answers in the teachers room one day when the teacher was out and they took them. Now my friend has got most of the class to agree to use these answers to cheat. They want me to do it too. What should I do? If I tell on them I will lose friends and the whole class will hate me."
Dear ...(name),
I understand that you are in a difficult situation. You don't want to cheat on a test, but you also don't want to lose your friends or be hated by the whole class.
I think the most important thing is to do what you believe is right. If you believe that cheating is wrong, then you shouldn't do it, even if it means losing friends or being unpopular.
It's also important to remember that cheating is not only wrong, but it can also have serious consequences. If you are caught cheating, you could get a failing grade on the test, be suspended from school, or even be expelled.
I know that it's hard to stand up to your friends, but I think it's important to do what you believe is right. You could try talking to your friends about your concerns. Explain to them why you think cheating is wrong and ask them to reconsider their plans.
If your friends are still determined to cheat, you could talk to your teacher or a trusted adult. They may be able to help you resolve the situation without you having to lose your friends.
I know that this is a difficult decision, but I hope that you will do what you believe is right. Cheating is never the answer.
Sincerely,
