Parents Are Becoming Dependent on Schools

Who doesn’t want to send their children to the best school of the city? Everybody wishes to do that. And, every parent also looks for the schools where their children can get to learn many other things along with studies. Everybody loves to opt for things that give more facilities. And, when it is a school then parents feel relaxed when their children get more facilities in the school. The present day schools are far different from the schools of earlier days. Now teachers not only focus on the academic results of the students but also emphasize on the other aspects i.e. co-curricular activities of the school.

But with the increasing facilities parents are also becoming highly dependent on the schools. Moreover, with most of the parents especially in the cities working these days, they fail to spend enough time with their children. Children definitely spend the major part of the active day in schools but they also need their parents presence when they come back home. There are a few of the things which children find comfortable when they learn it from their parents. But when they learn it from teachers in the school, it doesn’t seem to have the same impact.

We think schools can make a boy into a gentleman. But when this dream of ours doesn’t get fulfilled we start blaming the school. Why do we expect so much from a school when we already know that the home is the first social institution where the child learns the rules of this world? No one can teach a child better than parents can do. Children believe what their parents say. Even if their parents are wrong, they tend to believe them. Parents can teach their children anything that they want and many schools fail to do so. Blaming the teachers would not be very fair because it is not possible for the teachers to monitor each and every student in class. Teachers mostly notice students who are extra ordinary in their work which include both the best students and the worst students. In this way, the mediocre students remain unnoticed and fail to grab the attention of the teachers despite of getting so much of facilities in the school. Schools provide facilities to the students with the aim of keeping them updated but it depends upon how fast the children they can catch whatever is taught to them and how active they are to avail those facilities.
