Assuming this is true, when does your personal responsibility come into play?
We have put in plenty of time helping my daughter to understand things she is having a hard time with in school. It's called being a parent.

As a teacher, let me just let you in on a secret. Schools are good at one thing, teaching your kids to follow the rules (conformity to a standard).
Historically those who have wanted to learn have done so by reading, researching, trying, failing, and trying again until they succeeded in acquiring the knowledge or skills they sought. It’s laughable you think public school would provide what you think your kid requires.
Reading and basic math can be taught in less than 100 hours of contact time with a child.
The public school has these students for 12 years and the majority I teach still can’t read, write, or do math. Time to destroy this system and try something else.
But to your point, you are the parent. Teach your own freaking child. Waiting on public schools to do it means you may have been left behind yourself.

fricking bingo. I do like you Chad but this guy nailed it. If you have a problem with it, don't have a fricking child. Everything they do is your responsibility and it's your job to be involved in it and not complain about it. You need to deal with it.
