Ahhhh, I see. So essentially you're saying the mother should be playing with their youngest kid instead of chatting to you and the other parents?

To be honest, my parents actually did leave us in the car a lot, so we'd just draw and read comics and maybe play with toys. I assume we didn't learn more than if we were watching educational programs - I have no idea how to quantify that.

Your daughters school education is completely gamified? I didn't know that. I don't actually have any interaction with school aged kids, so I'm only hearing teachers perspectives.
