I come from an Asian country and I would argue that parental involvement is not that much different than the USA. Parental pressure and resultant stress is much worse though, so it’s not really a good thing. Ranking and comparisons are also very demotivating at the same time.
Some parents have time and others don’t - just like the USA. The main difference is the style of education itself, and the way that children are taught.
While I don’t have a solution to the USA problem, it’s definitely not because “parents are uninvolved”.
