She's a PTA president and heavily involved with the school district, but in all the years her son was in Kindergarten through middle school, she didn't actually sit down and help him with homework, or at least even ask about or look at his homework?

    She has limited time and her son was getting good grades. She assumed that he had it covered (since that is what the report cards said). Why micro-manage the child if he was keeping up with his classes? She assumed that she could do more good for her kid by working on the PTA.
