Blame The School?

I heard something that almost made me fall over, a woman is blaming the school because her kindergarten age daughter does not know her ABC's and cannot count to 20. Are you kidding me?!? How hard is it to sign the ABC song? Or to play with the little magnetic numbers and letters on the fridge? I have spent almost enough hours helping my children with home work that I probably could be a teacher. Isn't that what a parent is supposed to do? Since when did it become the school's responsibility to make sure your child knows the basics?

This is what is wrong with America, no one wants to accept the blame for failure. It's the school's fault, it's the government's fault, it's the president's fault. Look in the mirror, you have no one to blame but yourself!!!
