Covid showed that school from home was a failure. Children do not have the self discipline to stay in front of the computer and on task without an adult watching over them.

That was partly the issue, but also

  1. video calls in general suck
  2. YOU try focusing on a history lecture while your sister is sitting at the other end of the kitchen table practicing percussion

schools do not have the self-discipline to not be boring

Yes, it a cookie-cutter system designed to be easily adaptable and scalable. Teachers are discouraged from making their classes fun and exciting, it makes the average teacher look bad and the unions will not allow this.

Schools really needs to, because parents failing it

no. schools are an extension of the state and should not be relied upon to teach anything other than factually based information that supports building a stronger society.

anything pertaining to moralistic integrity or personal responsibility should be the family's responsibility.

the real problem here is that our society is collapsing due to the greed of capitalism. a greed that requires parents to work double shifts, or multiple jobs. this leaves parents either completely unavailable or exhausted to the point of apathy.

UBI would go a long way in resolving the conflict of state vs parental responsibility.
