The principals disagree parents, staff, fellow administrators and boards of education. As part of the "Me Generation," some parents are abdicating more and more responsibility for their children to the schools, which creates an added burden on administrators, the principals told Lacey.

Because principals can easily transfer their skills to areas such as management or sales where pay is higher, many are lured away from education.
