    About this ebook

    Is it important for parents to take an active role in supporting their childrens learning processes?

    How can you be more empowered in your childs education?

    Is your child at a potential advantage or disadvantage due to your familys income?

    In her latest work, author Mattie Lee Solomon, PhD, documents various parental perspectives on these and many other questions concerning involvement in the learning processes of children. Missing Link presents a collection of data gathered from interviews with parents from all walks of life to discover more about what parents think of the education of their children. Furthermore, Solomon offers valuable information about getting involved in your childs education and linking up with other parents for ideas on how to enhance your childs learning experience.

    Also included are some of the important questions used during these interviews. Designed to encourage reflection, these questions can help parents determine if, in their childs education, they are in fact the missing link.

      Lots of outdated boomer takes on the problems of our education system. There have been plenty studies that cover that “missing link.” But yes sure it is the parents fault for not being active enough in their child’s education and not communicating with faculty. That is the least of the problems.
