7th grader strikes deal with teacher after classmate does zero work on group project, sabotaging their school presentation: 'I got a 98% on the project, and [he] got a big, fat ZERO'

Most straight-A students do not have the ability to stop themselves from putting in most of the work on a group project. It's as if it's part of the curse of being a hard-working student. Of course, it doesn't have to be this way. Hardworking students could also assert limits and boundaries, but that takes a kind of emotional maturity most adults don't even possess, let alone most seventh graders.

Group projects are a curse for this kind of personality who will go above and beyond for a perfect grade, even if it means allowing other classmates to do next to nothing while they bend over backward to get everything completed in time. Of course, I speak from experience, as I was this type of student in middle school.
