[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In this wealthy country, with high housing costs, no universal healthcare or childcare (the cost of daycare, preschool, and before- and after-school care is astronomical) ...

this often means both parents work. and with single parent households, and nuclear families with smaller support networks ...

we shouldn't be surprised kids don't get the parental attention they need. So yes it is difficult for overstretched parents to help their kids with homework or deal with behavioral issues.[/quote]

You can move to an area with lower housing costs.  There are plenty of homes in this area for $400-500K, you don't need a million dollar home.

There is zero excuse for parents not to help with homework except if you don't speak english or having learning disabilities/educational struggles.

People like you are the problem as you'd rather complain than help your kids.

And, there are child care programs for low income.  The rec department has income waivers for summer programs.  Some schools have free before/after school care.  And, we have low income universal health care.  You'd know all this if you were low income.[/quote]
