These days most parents don't even fully raise their kids, technology does. Got 4 year olds knowing how to fully operate a smartphone. :francis:

Education starts in the home. Especially in the early years when good habits are formed. But that doesn't mean that it has to stop or things can't change. My homegirl decided to put her daughter in a high school a bit further away since the one near her where my brother went, as well as her, her brother, and her niece, wasn't too great of a school. So instead of going to a bad school, she got sent to a better one. Both schools have almost 50% Hispanic kids which she is. While the one she goes to is 40 to 10 white to black and the other one is the opposite but that's due to the area it's in. Both are in the suburbs so not like either school is in a bad area. Ok so going to a better school would guarantee better results right? WRONG!! This girl already done got like two F's on her report card and she just started. I only got one F my entire high school career and that was algebra senior year and I think it was on an interim report.

Morale of the story is, you can put any kid in the most prestigious private school, you can even send them to Harvard. But if the willingness to learn and the education in the home isn't correct, then you ain't doing shyt for them. I'm doing my best to teach my child if and when I have one, before they go to school so they'll be ready. Can't be raising no fools out here. :francis:

I'll say the educational system needs an overhaul. However, we don't stress education in AA homes. Why? Either because the parents (single parent) is too busy with work and putting for on the table too. Or it's just not a priority since most are trying to 'survive'.
so who failed you? why are you not a productive member of society?

use your life as a case study...

i've long thought that our public schools should be federally run rather than letting state/local governments run them as a first step.

there is no easy answer to any of this shyt though. throwing money at the problem isn't really the answer either according to a lot of shyt i've seen.

however it definitely doesn't hurt for schools that are completely underfunded and located somewhere with a weak tax base.

It starts in the home.

Both my parents were college educated.

They didn't play when it comes to school.

I did fine in high school.

The biggest advantage a person can give their kid's is is the ability to be there for their chikd daily and timely.

This is why the middle class and rich tend to have better educational outcomes, they have a steady home environment.

all of you talking about private school this and private school that are basically admitting that it's the parents and not the schools because parents who spend money to send their kids to a private school are active in their child's education because they don't want their money to go to waste. they have skin in the game. the other parents would go ape shyt if another student was allowed to make learning impossible at a school they are paying for their child to attend.

The problem is more or less a socio-economic problem aka kids with well of/educated parents are going to be well of compared to kids with poor parents who work most of their time.
