[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we have toxic sports achievements culture. Majority of kids need more academic achievement and push, not less. [/quote] Agree with the toxic sports achievement culture and the over emphasis on sports and extracurriculars but disagree with the need for more academic push. I think in affluent areas kids are pushed both in academics and sports. [/quote] And in the non affluent areas, there is still a large emphasis on sports but zero academic push. It’s an American thing. Middle class and lower income immigrants value education and push it much more than their American counterparts of similar socioeconomic status. [/quote]
