From past experience it has come to my conclusion that I agree with the editor Bill Pearson. It's really not so much the teachers fault, because the teacher knows how to do his or her job and has been doing it for a long time. Thus pointing the blame on parents for what ever reason might that be. I know from first hand when I went to school, the kids that always acted out or looked different would always have the lesser test scores. Bill Pearson stated that he bet that 90% of the disruptive or trouble-making students were part of a family that had past experience of dropping out or failing in high school. I agree, cause odds are that the parents of these disruptive students do have parents that failed, and it is very difficult to teach your child or help them with school work when they their self can not even figure out the problem. Teachers are there to help the students learn and progress in a positive way for life. Teachers go to college for five years to become this, there is no way they would do this with a attitude of not wanting their students to learn. The teacher sits back and tries to teach the student, when the student just sits there and becomes disruptive or has this dull look on his or her face, while the parents just don't seem to care what their child's score in the class is. A fellow classmate said while she helps out in teaching the elementary school, that she knows which parents care and the one's that don't. Thus all the blame shouldn't be put on the teacher, yet the blame should be on the student them self and the parents. Parents will know their kids better then the teacher any day, but it is their responsibility to become involved with their child's school work. Also from past experience, I was never really good in school, I wasn't disruptive but I was talkative, so I never payed attention in class to learn the lesson. When it came time to do the homework my mind became blank, I asked my mother to help me with the homework but to my surprise...
