@Professor_Stevens Public #education in the #UnitedStates has been failing for generations, that seems to be a consensus here, even if we disagree on #RootCauses.
#Finland is not only ranked as the ‘happiest’ country, it is a world-leader in #PublicEducation. Coincidence? 
One part of their curriculum starting at a young age addresses the “commercial forces” that you cited as a #RootCause of disrespect for education in #American families. https://www.helsinkitimes.fi/themes/themes/education/26048-finland-trains-six-year-olds-to-spot-fake-news-and-they-might-be-better-at-it-than-you.html
@Professor_Stevens I don’t disagree that most American parents do not instill a respect for #education in their children. But the parents that your acquaintance is passing the buck to were mostly products of the #American #PublicEducation system, too!
And this excuse does not explain why the PISA ranking of the #UnitedStates have fallen precipitously!
No, our public education system has degraded over the last few generations, and that has to be reversed. #USpol

This is money already committed and obligated.
