And it's not just with programming either. Some people want everything handed to them on a silver platter. I'll admit when I first started out programming, I asked for help with every little thing. I did read some documentation on what I was doing, but I just asked after reading it once, instead of trying to read it again and absorb the information and go from there. When I teachers aid at beginners networking class at my HS, I took over the class when the teacher was absent instead of callngn a substitute. I handed the students their manuals, told them the pages that the info was on, it even had color coded diagrams to show them how to plug everything in and set it up. I had two students try once and quit, they took an F on the project and even when I tried helping them they acted like it was my fault, that they had failed, because I didn't "go over the material like I should have" It's not that I didn't do my job, they just didn't give a rat's-ass about it. OS i understand where you coming from. I still ask for help sometimes, but not as much anymore, cause I understand most of the stuff I read now.
