| My wife is a 6th grade public school teacher. I can personally attest to your statement that when the parents are involved (notice I said PARENTS, not parent), the child almost always does better.
You know what is really sad? When my wife has to schedule a student's parent/teacher conference on 2 different nights because the parents can't stand to be in the same room at the same time with each other. And you wonder why the kid suffers....................
I have more stories, if anyone is interested.
