[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I never thought it was about race, as much as some posters on DCUM vociferously claim it is. I think it's about families' educational expectations, and their fear that [b]lower-income families will not encourage their children as much and that therefore the school cohort will not be as academically motivated as before. [/b][/quote] You know what? Fk you. My grandparents were all lower-income immigrants from Eastern Europe and Japan. They worked their butts off to achieve a better life than their parents had. You have some nerve saying lower-income families don't value education as much as richer families do. If anything they value it MORE because they understand it's the only way for their kids to have a better life than they have. [/quote]
