That's the gear labeled "parents."
It should absolutely be the role of public education to give kids a fighting chance at escaping crazy at home. Some kids will have parents who are more qualified on certain topics than teachers, but an effective education system should not assume that all or even most parents are competent. That should be a bonus, not a requirement to educate children.
Parents should be an addendum not blatantly jamming the whole thing by setup from...yeah...done said enough all ready. Anyone that don't understand gear but old enough to be hear needs to go back to a school that wasn't sabotaged.
