[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Idiotic. Evidently you are unaware that the country is full of kids who have minimal reading abilities and who can't even do math well enough to make change or balance a checkbook. These are things that need to be quantified, understood and addressed. [/quote] Here's a clue: it is not a result of poor schools. It is a result of poor parenting. That is what needs to be addressed.[/quote] NP. No, it's partly the school's responsibility. It's the school's responsibility to make sure kids are *not* graduating without being able to read at a HS level. That's not the parent's job. It's the school's responsibility to make sure the kids are passing math at a certain level. But, I agree, it is the parent's responsibility to make sure that kids can balance a checkbook and know how to budget. But, in that regard, I would say some parents of DCUMers have failed miserably since you see so many "I make six figures and still live in the red" posts.[/quote]
