[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would anyone undertake such a study?[/quote] More evidence that the achievement gap starts in the home, not the school system.[/quote] Haven't you seen how Asian parents push their kids? No down time. They're having them count billboards while driving down a highway. It doesn't mean the kids are smarter than other groups. It means the parents push them. So non-Asian parents are slackers? They should have done better?[/quote] Are you being deliberately obtuse? It's a cultural thing, not an intelligence thing.[/quote] NP- I agree. Generally (of course there are exceptions), Asians are teaching math and reading to their young kids while AA families are focusing on sports and hoping their kid will be the next LeBron.[/quote] [/quote]
