[quote=Anonymous]Physician here...family psychosocial risk factors and the child's social and emotional development are more predictive of school success than academic milestones. This is from an article in the journal Pediatrics, 2008. Racism, family turmoil, and generational poverty are probable causes for psychosocial damage in many poor AA families in the District and may even effect families who have gone up the economic ladder over the course of generations. Most AA do not have generational wealth. Therefore, AA families who are now middle and upper middle class may still see academic differences from their white counterparts. It is not as simple as SAT scores.[/quote]
