In the past month, a new book came out in Germany and talked a good bit over educational failures of the ‘migration-class’. The guy went and talked to educators and statistical people.
So what he said via the book is that a fair number of the migration-class kids...simply aren’t at the same level of a German kid. Even by age ten....a lot of them are already a full year behind. Traditionally, if a German kid got behind...the parents would go and pay a tutor ‘company’ and the kid would spend three to five hours a week...progressing to where they should be. These migrant families aren’t doing that.
Imagine the migrant kid then...age 14/15...supposed to be headed to apprentice opportunities, and he’s just not qualified (math skills, thinking, reading comprehension, etc). Some apprentice operations now mandate a entry test and won’t even accept applicants with poor math skills. Same organizations won’t put up with kids who show up late, or play ‘sick’.
Once you get dumped out of an apprentice program...pretty good odds that you are finished and the Job-Center won’t mess around with you or give you a second chance.
I was watching some German welfare reality show this year...maybe revolving around 20-odd Germans (not migrants)....all had five to twenty years of unemployment. The key feature that you came to...ALL of them had failed apprentice program episodes (never getting a certified occupation). There’s a major problem brewing here, but I can’t say how you’d go and fix this.
I think a lot of these migrants in Europe were never raised in a work oriented family and culture? They think that they should never have to work for a living and ultimately will be tossed like the detritus they have grown to be. That, or they will go down in a "blaze of glory" and martyrdom.
