Outline for others, yes or no?

I personally feel that sharing an outline in general, is a good idea, but not in this situation. We are supposed to write a very important essay, with OUR OWN IDEAS, and own skills. We shouldn't be doing this with the thoughts and time someone else has invested into his or her outline. I completely understand that Mr. Doubt wants us to see other outlines and the ideas someone else had, but I would ask for some respect in this situation. For example, I sit next to Ika, who hasn't done any of this work yet, and now I should pass him my outline, although he hasn't even invested one single second into thinking about what his essay could be about. This is unfair. I do not want to share my outline in this situation. No, I am not dying to use my outline in order to write my essay, but I would prefer to have it, and use its assistance, rather than having to do it all out of my head.
