Every year at my son’s school they have a program which is called Donuts With Dads and Donuts With Mom. This program is used to get parents more involved with their kids at school. Now I go every year as I think an active parents gives kids more reasons to do better in school. kids like their parents to be involved in school as it makes them feel good.

After going to this function which by the way takes around 10 minutes of your time and runs from 8am-9am in the morning. It usually happens just twice a year. I decided as a little test for this blog I would see how many parents in a 350 student school would actually show up. The grand total was a paltry 10 dads out of 350 kids. I will admit I had to scratch my head thinking this was crazy. After talking to the principal who was helping out he said this was normal.  People wonder why kids don’t care about school. I guess it’s easy to see because the parents don’t either.
