A child's education is first supported by their family, and then by the school.  A parent is child's first teacher.  Parent can break or make a child by being a bad role model, ignorant role model, or a good role model.  An uninformed and ignorant parent expects the school to pick up their parenting responsibility, when at school their child at best can practically get just 1/20th of the class teacher's attention, and could get 100% of parent's productive attention outside school.

On this forum, a responsible parent is foolishly referenced as a wealthy parent, and a hardworking student is depicted as a prepped student.  An ignorant parent eats up this narrative fast because it doesn't highlight their remiss in their parental duty, and conveniently blames the lack of progress in their child's education as a problem caused by school and other parents.

Exactly this.

The other thing is that a lot of the parents who think their smart, are really just hardworking and lucky.

Their kids may not get into AAP but the fact that they can grow up to be hardworking and successful doesn’t seem to be important here. Their kids will still get a great education. [/quote]
