Most parents concerned their child isn’t reaching their full potential
Almost two-thirds of parents (64%) are concerned that their child isn’t reaching their full potential, according to new research. Conducted by Talker Research on behalf of Presence, a survey of 2,000 parents of school-aged children revealed that another 42% are more stressed than ever before about their child’s academic success. From concerns about safety (37%), to emotional well-being (37%), social development (28%), behavioral issues (23%) and more, it’s no secret that many factors play a role in children’s success both academically and in life. According to the results, 85% of parents notice something that concerns them about their child on a monthly basis, with 20% indicating that it’s a daily occurrence. This was especially true for parents of elementary school children, as 28% notice something concerning every day.
