He attributes this situation to an undemanding attitude that prevails in society in general, and with parents in particular, with regard to education and achievement. He then considers what can be done, suggesting that even if we cannot soon correct the problem, we can address the symptoms.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue></record></records></xml>
