What service? Offering to do the homework problems for kids does not do
them a service. As a previous responder (not underminer) pointed out, it
is better for the kids to do the work and figure it out. This _does not_
eliminate genuine assistance from a person who cares for the kid and
his/her learning. However, I would maintain it does eliminate a person
who says "give me a dollar and I'll do the problem for you." I think I
will go so far as to claim this exploits the natural desire of the
immature to just "get through" the problem with the minimum amount of
effort.

BTW, I am paid a salary for my involvement with students. However, it is
a salary given to teach, not to do their homework problems for them.
