parents

Most parents are in roles that will not be around for their children, or the parents cannot give such roles to their children.

There was a story about the kids playschool which charged parents $3 if they were late to pick up the kid: it caused more parents to be late.

They're just the first generation to have it broadcast live for their teachers, parents, and bosses to see.

As a kid my parents took me to see the laser light show at the Grand Coulee Dam.

You make a good point about the parents being as sucked into technology as their kids.

The teachers were very good with handling the parents and making this easier on the kid.

Had I known, though, I probably would have shared the shipping with my (and perhaps the girlfriend's) parents.

Ruby is likely the best choice for parents who already are Ruby programmers).

Just as they would have wished their parents (and the establishment) to trust in them when they were just starting out in the world.

HN doesn't allow comments with multiple parents, so I needed to choose one to reply to.

But on the whole, I have a solid base to build upon, and I can thank my parents for that.

You don't see very many of the young adults who are healthy, if there are any young people they come in with their parents.

Like a wise princess once said, "The more you tighten your grip, the more [wealthy parents] will slip through your fingers."

Even dumb ideas off the top of my head like "Wealthy parent A purchases 300 textbooks and donates them to the school so the school can spend that money on higher salaries for teachers" are probably legal ways for wealthy parents to supplement their local school.

I wasn't aware of this at all until I had some distance from them, and heard about/experienced other people's parents, who tended to fall into either "helicopter" or "absent." I left college to start a company (a decision that, I note, my parents were incredibly supportive of), and I have no debt.
