The "blaming game"

Around a week has passed by since the released of PSLE results. Met a few parents in the past few days (by coincidence), one or two have accepted the truth well but the others are still playing the "blaming game". WHO is responsible for their kids' poor results? To them, the possible culprits are namely, the school, the principal, the teachers and their own children. Most common complaints are : "School standard is too low", "the school only takes good care of the good pupils", "the school never stretch their children's potential to the limit", "the teacher is too fierce", "the child is too lazy" etc. The funny thing is they will never blame themselves. I have heard of a parent who walked away angrily who she learnt of her child's result. The mother left the poor child standing there, in tears.
There are parents who are simply "bo chap". For the past 6 years, they did not "push" their children to excel for fear of giving them stress. They are too busy to even check their daily homework or weekly spellings. Some even have no clue who their children's teachers are. On meet the parents' day, it is always no show for them. The excuses given are they are too busy or no point going as what the teachers said are the same every year......
It takes two hands to clap. The school and teachers will definately do our part, but we really need the parents' cooperation in order to make things work. There is no use crying over spill milk. There is no point "playing the blaming game."
