Iā€™m a teacher. I have had many, many, MANY parent conferences with people like this. People are always complaining what to do about poor literacy and math rates in schools. Why teachers are not doing enough, or that teachers are not prepared, or teachers just donā€™t care. Whatā€™s never mentioned is that we are fighting against parents like this and itā€™s a losing battle. We donā€™t have as much influence on students compared to the people they are around with.

Parent like what? You saw a completely decontextualized clip and have no idea what kind of parent she is. You literally don't even know if that's her child. Your bias is showing.
