parents have to the their role in this not only teachers and government
parent should stop their children from using phones that have internet access
because most of the children ping, chat, facebook, visit NP, during lesson hour
and the work part is that they can't even read test books to do their course work
instead they google it and do copy and paste which is plagiarism
