Yes, but that doesn't mean that societal circumstances shouldn't be taken into account. For example, there are many white supremacists who put down blacks as lazy and praise Asians as being hard-working, completely ignoring the circumstances, like how many blacks were slaves and even afterwards were treated poorly which obviously facilitated poverty, while there was a blanket ban on Asians from immigrating for a while, so the Asians that did come were already well off, which meant that they generally did not become poor. I'm saying this is the same. We don't look at the circumstances surrounding the situation thoroughly enough.

Oh, I think one of the biggest differences you aren't acknowledging is Asian parents tend to show interest in their children succeeding in school and life in general.

If more people regardless of ethnicity did the same, you'd get surprisingly great results regardless of their financial situation.

In a nutshell, shit kids tend to have shit parents.

And you don't think that there are Arabs that care about their children? Do you know any Muslims at all?
