I can see this. When I was active in the schools with my kids I saw a increase in their attendance and test scores. I believe the fact that I told them if I found out there were not going to class I would sit in class with them to make sure they were there. I guess they did not want me sitting in class with them because they all had almost perfect attendance. Only times they missed school was when the had DR.s appointments or were sick. Now that they have grown up they seem to relax a bit knowing that I am not going to college with them.
