“It’s not always easy to get your kids to love school, right? Some kids are all in and love every moment, from the first time they step into a classroom till that big walk across the stage, diploma in hand. Other kids … not so much! And we get it – it’s not always fun, and it’s a lot of hard work. But it’s so important to instill a love of education and learning in our kids, and encourage them to embrace their time in the classroom and dedicate themselves to their studies. And a new study out of Finland suggests that the way a kid feels about school is actually influenced by their parents’ own educational level.
