This is often the problem-we like to blame schools for the problems kids have, but a lot of the time it is as much the fault of the parents as it is of the students. When I was a kid, it used to piss me off that my parents made me spend so much time reading and studying when other kids were out playing. Now that I have a great job that requires me to read and study all the time, I'm not as pissed off at them as I was as a kid. I guess they knew what they were doing.
