I read a fascinating study on 'parental expectations and race' many years ago. White, Asian and Black children (middle school and HS) were asked this question:

Re: the letter grades A,B,C,D,F....at what grade on your report card would your parents get angry and punish you?

Asian answer... 'B'
White answer... 'C'
Black answer... 'F'

The study did not include Hispanics because this was about 20 years ago and the Hispanic population was not nearly as large as now.
