As far as I know, all groups have parents who care about education (exemplified by some stereotypical populations) but also have within their ranks parents (and thus children) who don't care --the proverbial kids form the wrong side of the tracks (or trailer parks, if you prefer). So yes, we can find exemplary parents in all representative populations, but also parents who have abrogated their responsibilities when rearing children.

Of course. The populations are far too big for that not to be the case. What matters is what portion of a group's parents give a shit and what portion don't. I think its clear that Asian parents as a whole are far more likely to be in the 'give a shit' category, based on their children's educational results (even controlling for socioeconomic status)
