Cheating

An interesting article in today's The National, which is Abu Dhabi's English daily newspaper.  It says that students in the UAE have been cheating in school since kindergarten, and that it's not always considered something bad for students to do.  So my questions for you are:

1) What do you consider cheating?
2) What do you consider not cheating?
3) Do you think it's unrealistic to expect that university students should never cheat?
4) What do you think is appropriate punishment for cheating at ZU?

So, I know that Emirati women are having fewer children these days, and this is influencing Emirati society.  Maybe that's why this guy is getting so much support to reach his goal: 100 children.  Whoa! Serious? How is this possible? Read the story and give your opinion in the comment section.   

This guy sounds like a real catch for these lucky women.  Very romantic:
My favorite part:

Mr Juma’a has had 12 wives: three from Egypt, six from India and three from the UAE. Two from the UAE died and one was divorced.
“You had five from India,” protests his son Omar.

“No, six,” says Mr Juma’a. “I divorced three.” And it is settled.

Mr Juma’a did not divorce his wives to have more children but because, he admits, he was strong-willed in his younger days.

“If the wife does not hear my words I will seek another obedient wife,” he says. “She was not respecting me, maybe she is defaming me through a long tongue. Some wives shouted at me and told me to shut up.”
