And the allies we need most are parenta. Unfortunately, for too many parents underestimate their own importance as educators. A 1984 study by the Foundation for Child Development found that mothers and fathers employed outside the home spent eight minutes a day with their children on activities that could be in their childrens education. That age has passed. Todays teachers understand that family and school must be partners. Though often harried and pressured by time, today's parents can help children apply and sharpen the skills acquired in the classroom. They can help children better manage daily routines, build better study habits, inand sharpen crease their ability to reason and analyze. They, can transform common task thing from following a dinner recipe to determining the best route for a family vacation-i-n to learning experiences. They can encourage children to develop the positive values they need to do well in school and in life. They also help children learn that disagreement need not.be disagreeable, that discussion and negotiation are possible both in the family and at school, and that adoring priorities in a respon-- . sible fashion-b- y choosing which TV shows to watch, for example-ca- n actually be enjoyable.
