Griego: Who helps the parents succeed? - The Denver Post:
"Let's talk about parents.
Here is a reader's comment:
'YOU forgot the most important thing in a child getting a good education. The one who guides, teaches, loves and teaches them their values. PARENTS or PARENT . . . Those who have the guidance and involvement of their parents, parent or mentor stay in school and succeed.'
That remark came in response to Saturday's column about President Barack Obama's speech, but it is typical of some reaction to my columns on education and low-income students.
Why, these readers ask, do you not talk about the role and responsibility parents play in preparing their children to succeed in school?"
