I think in those schools often there are almost no functional parents, educationally speaking- and that would be horrible. I don't know how you deal with that kind of ignorance, and I'm glad that's not my job.
Rightly or wrongly I lay a lot of the parental dysfunction at the heart of the welfare system. That's what brought a lot of kids into the world with one already dysfunctional parent IMHO--the kids who don't have enough to eat for instance.

Reform the "have a kid for free on the government mentality" and we start to get at the root of parental dysfunction. You certainly see the effect, I'm mystified why the "cause" remains hidden to you.
