Rosie,
We are both in NC, and I see this as well. Parents that believe that
baseball, football, soccer, and dance are more important than reading! I
suggested once that a student do their reading inbetween their practice times
and met a cold stare of a dad who was trying to make excuses for his child's
lack of daily reading.
You are right about college not being right for everyone. We need skilled
tradespeople who are knowledgeable on the latest techniques and applications.

How children learn is as important as what they learn: process and content go
