Parents Have Homework, Too.
By Sybil Humphries
"No gift is too costly (or too hard to obtain) for a par-
ent to give his child."
No parent would choose to give his or her child an
inferior gift, or a gift that would be harmful in any way.
The gift of a good education is a most valuable one. What
can parents do to contribute their part to this gift? The
teachers (school) have one very important part. The child
has a very important part. Parents have an equally im-
portant part. Without the parent's part, the education
will not measure up.
In short, parents have homework. The home is where
it all begins. Parents are the head of the home. The head
of the home provides, teaches, reinforces and enforces.
If the head of the home does not fulfill its obligations,
no other agency can fill in the gap. The child carries
with him/her everything that is absorbed in the home.
First of all, parents must supply the basic needs of the
infant, including food, shelter, clothing, love and secu-
rity. By the time the child has reached school age, par-
ents have done lots and lots of "homework." However,
the assignment is just beginning.
When the child begins school, the parent's role takes
on a new dimension, that of enhancing the "formal edu-
cation." That is, the education that is provided by the
school. A parent's role in the education of his child has
many dimensions. A parent's "homework" carries with
it many responsibilities. These responsibilities include
keeping the proper attitude toward education and
school, supporting/helping your child, setting healthy
