the overwhelming focus on academic outcomes over humane ones is relatively recent for school systems im not sure of the reason for the decline. i suspect maybe the american culture rift from the 60s spurred it

Imo it's more about returning the balls that're hit to you rather than planning out the best shots. It seems like a massive amount of raising kids will simply be out of your control and parenting is more about reacting/steering them in the right direction as it happens to them

There's actually a special school that kids can go to one day per week, typically on Sundays, that teaches good behavior and ethics. Inquire about it at one of those buildings that hangs all the lower-case t's on its walls. Shocking how few know this.
