I think we agree, but I expressed it poorly.

Focus/Attention and patience are the skill that is degrading and proficiency in it is probably the pre-requisite for any successful growth in most other academic skills.

I'd be curious to see if those skills are being explicitly taught in preK and Kindergarten.

IMO, those are qualities that are hard to teach to a class and should be a responsibility of the parents to teach their kids.
