You think the parents of those children are upset that their children were well educated which resulted in better opportunities and loftier careers? I don’t think that upsets the communities at all. You do have to remember communities are made up of people. In this case parents. Who want the best for their children. That’s their goal in life. Which good education helps to accomplish. So it seems that accomplished its goals perfectly.
I’m just not sure what you’re trying to hover around here. It feels like you’re trying to make the argument that communities should purposely not educate their children well so their children will be trapped in said community. Stuck in a permanent cycle of poverty . Now that’s obviously ludicrous so I hope you’re not trying to say that. Maybe your orbit is just so extremely wide I’m not sure what you are circling here.
Communities (which are more than just parents). It’s a little more complicated. It’s really common to see communities celebrate a home town boy who made good.
But are they happy that in a broader sense they aren’t good enough? Do they like being someplace you leave behind? This whole discussion stemmed from a place that had great education and is now circling the drain. I don’t think communities enjoy that kind of thing.
A boomer who provided a great education for their kids in 90s probably wasn’t expecting to grow old in a community with 3rd world healthcare and lunch ladies teaching their grandkids classes because the school won’t hire woke teachers.

Parents… No.
