The Americans have graded the educational system and they say it is far below the standard in which we have become accustomed too. For the past 40 years, the need for teachers has sky-rocked, books are more expensive, and students are having a hard time learning the basic skills. Schools are failing to produce college bond kids and sending many more out into the real world without the necessary skills that employers are looking for. Year after year, kids are moved up grade by grade with no real understanding of math, writing, and reading. Young adults graduate from high school thinking that they actually made it and will go on to bigger and better things, when what they do not know, is that they have a long, hard road ahead of them. Many people in America want to blame the school systems, the teachers, and the lack of money for schools. Yet, no one seems to want to blame the parents, the community leaders, or the business partners. Why? Why is it that people can place blame on others and do nothing about the problem or help find a solution? Simply stated, the problem is that our children are not getting the education that they need to survive in a fast pace world. There are many reasons why children are not doing as well as they should and it starts at home. When children are first born, parents try to teach their children the best that they can but after a certain age, most parents seem to give up. Many parents have to find jobs to support the family and so the children are left with a babysitter or in a daycare system.
