I think years ago Jeff Foxworthy said it best -- once I would like to see a kid on Oprah and say my mom was great, dad was great, I'm just a s$8thead. There are some kids that just dont get "it" no matter what is done to help them. I beleive parents have a great role in how their children will end up. The answer is NOT in high school or middle school. There "NEEDS" need to be PARENT INVOLVEMENT birth through elementry. Studies have shown children will learn the most of who they will be before five years old. That lays on the parents. If you let your kids sit in front of the TV most of the day you will end up with a child who does not want to do anything else. I feel also that no matter what the parents did in school does not reflect the child in school. If you do not know how to help with the homework -- learn how to with the child. I support my family soley on my income (less than 40k a year), I have three small children the oldest starting kindergarten this fall, and if I need a second job to ensure my childrens education so be it. If parents feel they need to complain about any school district I will say this -- quit complaining and do something -- join the school board, talk with people to try to make it better. Just do not sit there and whine like a 2 year old because your tax's went up a few hundred (??) dollars a year.
