[quote=Anonymous]I think Asians are big category. I often see Asians hang out separately by their country of origin for whatever reasons, like Chinese, japanese, Koreans, Vietnamese, indians, philipinos etc. They do not bully each other, but they do not mingle with each other. For white, I do see they are more often hang out together, like different European, Jewish or 2nd/3rd/4th so on local whites etc.. maybe they are more common in culture.

Overall, Asian dominated communities are more geared towards harmony and academic, so it is true that there are less bullying at school. That does not guarantee friendship, but at least they tend not like to start troubles or anything violence. Most Asian parents are more stressed on discipline and correction of their kids' behaviors.

I live in white dominated area. I would not say bullying, but as an Asian & a minority, it is challenging for my kids and me to break into the white communities at school. They probably see us as a weirdo, and I find them not tjat friendly but not to the point of bullying. They just do not want to do much with you. That is all.  I know there are some areas in VA have tons of Koreans, but they are not in good school district. Overall, I think dmv is fine. [/quote]
