"outcomes are tied to race and socioeconomic status"
No, outcomes are tied to the culture of the parents. Parents involvement/care is the greatest predictor of child success. This doesn't mean that the parents are educated or wealthy, it's that they have a mindset that the best thing they can do for the success of THEIR child (not society) is prioritize education.
- amluto 4y agoMeasuring “culture” in a manner independent of socioeconomic status seems challenging, but: > it's that they have a mindset that the best thing they can do for the success of THEIR child (not society) is prioritize education. Parents with that mindset but who don’t have a safe home or don’t have reliable food or who both work two jobs may have a very difficult time prioritizing education.
