[quote=Anonymous]Here's one other thought: In the 60s and 70s, schools were very rigid with overly much memorization. Parents were very hands off. In the 2000s, the focus is too much on conceptual understanding, without the memorization and fundamentals needed. Parents are huge helicopters. The 80s and 90s were the time when the pendulum was swinging from one extreme to the other, so the kids had a much more balanced education. and a more balanced amount of parental involvement.
