[quote=Anonymous]Who do you imagine immigrants to be, OP? In my neck of the woods, they're incredibly educated people with fancy jobs and money who pay a lot of attention to their children's academics and general wellbeing. Where I used to live, it was a lot of low-income immigrants who might or might not be too busy to care about how their kids did in school, or know how to help them if they failed or got into trouble. The "cultural shock" of coming here from abroad and raising American kids is going to be significantly alleviated by education and money. Not saying I didn't have a steep learning curve, coming to the US! But I can't complain when I see what other poor, uneducated, parents are going through. It's a whole other world.[/quote]
