[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like a better question is what are teachers/schools NOT expected to do for kids these days?

Schools need to teach them everything, apparently including sex and also “social emotional learning” like empathy and personal management, they need to feed the kids and in many cases clothe them. And they need to screen for abuse. What do parents do except provide a bed to sleep on?

Why don’t we just build a bunch of institutions that we put kids in at birth and force parents to prove that they’re decent parents before they’re allowed to take the kids out of there?? It sounds like most kids would be better off that way because some parents apparently do NOTHING for their kids. Even when we the taxpayers give them money for having those kids. I’d rather just give the money towards boarding schools and no more rent assistance or anything for those “parents”.[/quote]

Former teacher and +1000... and actually a lot of these parents you describe do not fit the (physical/socioeconomic) profile one might assume. Obviously exaggerating but it's gotten completely ridiculous with the lack of parental responsibility, including from middle and UMC parents[/quote]
