I'm sorry you've found this. You think parents will usually be in competition against their children, not wanting what's best for them?
As for the second part, I absolutely agree. I've just found that that is generally the case from homeschoolers I've met.
Yeah, I believe parents most of the time want not what the best for child, but what's best for the image of the child they've built, and what's the best for their own ego to convince themselves that "I'm such a good parent!"
