The problem is that more and more children are having to raise themselves and their siblings. Some parents are taking on more jobs and working longer days. Because of this, there are parents who are not active in their child's upbringing or education. Intervention needs to begin when the child is younger. If a student gets into trouble a certain amount of times then the parent or parents need to be assigned to a parenting class with their child. The only way the problems in the schools can be eased is to put the responsibility of the child's actions back on their parents where it belongs.
