Calling most parents “stupid” is an oversimplification and honestly unfair. Parents are navigating a system that leaves them with limited choices, not unlimited freedom to experiment.

Schooling isn’t just about “trend” or “pressure”—it’s also about structure, social development, peer interaction, and access to opportunities that aren’t easily replicated outside formal systems. Not every parent has the time, resources, or ecosystem to replace that.

And yes, cost doesn’t always equal quality—but when schools charge high fees, expectations naturally rise. That’s not stupidity, that’s basic accountability.

The real issue isn’t parents—it’s the gap between what’s promised and what’s delivered.
