[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And no one was blaming higher needs on poor parenting. I AM saying that in the absence of good parenting, academic achievement won’t improve — even with more and more and more funding.[/quote] A not insignificant portion of special needs is definitely a direct result of poor parenting. Babies don't get to choose if their gestational years are inside an obese or addicted parent. Kids aren't buying their own food to stuff their mouths with 3000 calories of soda and chips. Infants aren't buying their own ipads and phones to watch cartoons with. Kids don't learn on their own that life without rules and consequences is the only rule. I see this every single day and these families are not specific to any one demographic except the "poor parenting" one.[/quote] You see this every single day huh? Pray tell where? Let's all hope you're not a teacher. [/quote]
