What comes after the main issue?
BCOMM TWO – October 2009
Describe the Findings… By a ratio of nearly four-to-one, adults in this country [USA] say that American parents are placing too little (56%) rather than too much (15%) pressure on students, with the remaining quarter (24%) saying that parents are exerting the right amount of pressure (Mike, R. & Horowitz, J.M.).
BCOMM TWO – October 2009
Describe the Findings… Roughly six-in-ten Japanese (59%) say all this pressure is too much, while 30% feel the demands are about right. Only 9% say students need more parental pressure -- a figure that stands in stark contrast to the 56% of Americans who feel this way about students here (Mike, R. & Horowitz, J.M.).
