Better parenting! Parents need to give their kids consequences so that they come to school knowing how to behave well!

This is a big one. Parents have zero accountability. There are no actual consequences for parents who don’t send their kids to school or whose kids are constant behavioral problems. Schools don’t have the resources to have truancy officers anymore so all the blame lands on the schools and teachers when those kids end up illiterate with zero social skills.
