[quote=Anonymous]There is a correlation between low SES/high FARMS and disruptive behavior and low test scores for all of the obvious reasons that have already been discussed on this thread: poor/inconsistent parenting, chaotic households, lack of family resources to access outside assistance with behavior and/or learning disabilities, lack of proper nutrition, etc. Of course all of these factors have a very negative impact on children's behavior and school performance! However, it's just ignorant and simple minded to link all of this to African Americans! The behavioral problems and low test scores are due to low SES and race doesn't need to be brought into it. I'm sure majority white schools in Appalachia with similarly low SES experience the same problems. [/quote]
