[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our parents in many cases worked fewer hours, had shorter commutes, and more family help. They were probably in better shape too, so more energetic.[/quote] Oh yeah, AND parenting is much more involved. The culture is to spend more quality time with your kids playing and reading and taking them to activities. Rather than brushing them off so you can clean.[/quote] Another point I wanted to mention is that it seems A LOT more parental involvement is required in schools. I went to school in the 90s and early 2000s and my parents were rarely involved in my homework. My kids are still young, but every friend or relative I speak to who has school-aged kids is way more involved than mine were. It can't all be a coincidence? I think the lack of textbooks and proper curriculums is really screwing up education, and parents are effectively having to homeschool their kids.[/quote]
