Should I ever turn in papers I've written for a family relative?

Asked by Palindrome (1084

I’ve written a couple of papers for a family relative (I know. I know. Bad) and I can’t completely recall if she had to ever turn it into turnitin.com or any other database so my question is should I ever turn in one of my papers? I’m afraid I’ll be accused of plagiarism of my own paper.

If you can’t confirm through your relative if they turned the papers in or not, don’t take the chance of turning in duplicates. Just write another original paper.

Only if you want to get caught cheating. Seriously, why would you risk plagiarism? It’s not worth it.

Just make her write you a new paper. Ha.

If your grades are important to you, I would not risk the possibility of getting caught.

If you really REALLY are that desperate, then go with REALLY HEAVY editing. But it’d probably be easier to just write a new one. (yes, I have gotten away with edited papers)
