Certainly true. And its the very point - not everybody helps their children. Asian parents by-and-large do. ANd certainly the school system favors their children. That's the premise we started with. The children are doing well because their parents are helping them. Then fudged the rules so their children got the lions share of attention and programs. Those without parents that helps them (culturally, economically) do poorly. Through no fault of their own (being born to the wrong parents?) Try to help all the children, and the cry of "Reverse racism!" or some such nonsense gets raised every time.
