Our oldest (7) entered public school last year and my expectations for other parents lowered to a point that I never thought possible. I was worried she wouldn't adjust well or would shut down, but nope the teachers gush to us about her constantly. I'm not patting myself on the back at all because it's 90% my daughter being awesome and somehow having high emotional intelligence at her age. How proud I am is leaking out.

Shit parents do create shit kids though. The saying is good parents often create good kids but bad parents almost always make bad kids. For example the douche parents at my kid's school created the kid that steals from the teacher constantly and is in the "trouble room" every day.

Sometimes good parents have terrible kids, too. Sociopaths are just born sometimes and not made.
