Question of the Day: Watch the Video Above. Read : Whose Fault Is It if a Child Is Failing in School?

I think that its the parents and the students fault because the mother/father should be on their child's grades when they are young so that they would understand that school is very important. If the parent is not doing that then they wouldn't know how to keep their grades up. Its not right how in some countries the parent is getting fined for their child failing. I just think that they should try to have a conference with the parent to see if there is something going on at home. 

Its sometimes not always the parents fault because some children either dont have parents or have parents that dont care. If the child was brought up the right way then they would know what they have to do with out their parents being there. Once that student gets into the 6-12 grade the parent shouldn't have to be there to tell their child to do their homework. That student should be able to go home and do his/hers homework on their own without being told.

Its mostly on responsibility because if you are responsible for something then you should take account for it. They shouldn't be able to grade parents, they have way more other stuff to be focusing on than being graded on. The parent works as well and have to pay rent and put clothes on their children's back and feed them as well. Worrying about the child's grade is just one more thing added on their list of responsibility. So the child should be able to have responsibility for school on their list if they're old enough to handle it by themselves.
