I remember fondly how my father (a machinist) would give me little geometry or math problems as a child and help me solve them - long before we ever covered them in school.

Like people who have have Porsches but can't afford to maintain them, I think that a lot of people have kids that they don't have time or aren't willing to raise properly. When the kids fail they blame it on the schools.
