Education is too important to leave entirely in someone else's hands.
Exactly, use to sit with the kids reading, spelling and math. Got involved with what they were doing at school ensuring they fully understood what was being taught, taught them that 80 percent is an indication that you need to know the 20 percent you didn't so that when the big exam came up you nailed it.
Parenting is so much more then dump and go, lay blame if there are issues when it's all about getting involved etc.
