1 answer

All of these are correct. Each of these factors can serve as a barrier to parent involvement:

  • Previous unpleasant experience: Parents may be hesitant to engage if they have had negative interactions in the past.
  • Lack of time: Many parents juggle multiple responsibilities, making it difficult to find time for school-related activities.
  • Language: Language barriers can prevent effective communication between parents and educators, hindering involvement.

Therefore, all of these factors contribute to the challenge of fostering parent involvement in educational settings.
