Chet, the seven-year-old son of Thai parents, is growing up in a Thai community in a large metro area. His family is poor and most of his friends come from poor families. Based on statistics, why is Chet less likely than children from wealthier families to succeed academically?
A) He is less likely to succeed academically because his family, unlike wealthier families, is likely to encourage him to become a part of the resistance culture in the community.
B) He is less likely to succeed academically because he, more than children from wealthier families, is likely to lose ground academically during the summers.
C) He is less likely to succeed academically because teachers in metro area schools are typically underqualified and underprepared to help children overcome the setbacks associated with poverty.
D) He is less likely to succeed academically because academic expectations are low despite high quality schools and resources in poor communities.
