    I was a high schooler last year and by this standard, every single one of my classmates’ parents are complete failures, including mine. Not that I disagree, but clearly we can’t trust the parents to do anything about this.

      Because this is not about trust. Don’t overestimate your or your kid’s contribution. Our brains seek to use as little energy and effort as possible, always. The right strategy is to reduce the amount of distracting factors in school.

      Yeah because most of our parents are trash at it and make kids because “that’s what people do”
