It’s a hard question. You know your child better than anyone, but you don’t own your child nor their future.
There are legal expectations for parental behavior at a Societal level, and perhaps informally at a Community level. Is that enough?
Always thought a parental/guardian “report card” for those caring for school age children would be a good idea. We measure students and teachers, why not parents? Teachers rate parents on the educational support they provided their children and their teachers. Red/yellow/green, meaningful in child custody case and the like. Just an idea...
- snow_mac 6y agoWhat about single parents? Or parents who work two or three jobs to keep food on the table? My wife is a teacher and regularly deals with parents who are to busy trying to keep food on the table to study with their kids. It's super easy to judge when you make a 6 figure salary and are highly educated. But most families aren't making that kind of coin.
