I don't think they hear fewer words because they don't care about school. It has to do with ability and exposure.
The people around them are a huge element in this.

1 year Olds have no opinion on school.

If they are surrounded by people who don't care about school and who don't prioritize helping them, they arrive already way behind at age 5.

That's why i focused on the wide ranging tentacles from it. Some of the other posters did a great job of taking it farther.

I kind of like how they've fleshed some of it out.

My post was intended to people thinking about the entire death spiral and how, in some cases, our "fixes" or intentions contribute to it

Correct. But often they don't even realize they have limited vocabularies. They aren't trying to fix a problem they aren't aware exists.

They are way behind by the time they are 3. It's not that the mothers don't care, they don't know they are doing anything wrong.
