@Jolly Yes I agree. Asian countries are not perfect at all, and for sure, asian kids are not smarter than others. But I think that one reason Asian students do well as a higher % vs. others is that parents are more involved in schooling.

Not sure about that.

@George-K said in Gen Z Snapshot:
in 1965, one in four Black children were born to single mothers. Today, that percentage is 70 percent, and among Whites, the number is nearing 50 percent.
Is that really true???? That seems really really high. That seems to say that more than 50% of the total population of kids are born to single mothers. Wow!!!
EDIT: A couple of other data sheets said that % for whites is about 25% and black is about 65%

Wait, am I reading that right? 50% of children born to whites are black?

From that article:
There was a period in my adolescence from 9 to 13 where I did have two parents.
My adoptive mother entered a relationship with a woman and they raised me for a few years together.
The bright spot of my childhood was those years.
My grades were the highest they had ever been.
I was the most academically focused.
I was the least likely to get into trouble at school or with my friends.
See, @Jolly, the best parental configuration, based on this guy’s life story and experience with no less than 10 foster families, is one with two women co-parenting together!
