Everything is edited these days - do you think parents don’t read college essays and edit them? Or that those kids don’t have writing coaches? This all goes directly to the college.
What about the public schools who inflate grades and allow for retakes? Come on, a parents giving feedback is not the problem here.

Retakes aren't taken by Mom.

No but retakes are usually the exact same test, so studying with mom/tutor/dad for them is an option

This feels like a lose-lose. If I don't sit with him/edit his papers, he turns in crap and gets told to do better (but all while never being taught how to write a paper), if I guide him on how to write a paper then it gets accused of being AI generated.
