This is a cultural thing. Most Thai parents see their job as to clothe, feed and put a roof over their kids head. Discipline and education is seen as the job of the teacher. Check out your top students. Generally their parents are on top of it, getting them to do homework and monitoring what they do at school. They are the ones you see on parents day. Sad situation but true!
