2. So the obvious takeaway is kids need to be raised with a diverse group of children and adults

and those who are not are more apt to not have empathy for others, if people are similar to rats in this regard.

I've long been an opponent of the trend toward home schooling and private or charter schools unless they are diverse, and many are not.

Somehow we need to get back to mandating that all children attend diverse schools, preferably public ones, with very rare exceptions and home schooling granted only for limited reasons (ie, if the kid's an Olympic athlete or movie sta who can't attend regular classes, or has a disability too severe for public schooling)

It should not be an option to take your kid out of public school just because you want them raise din a lily-white environment. Hate groups like the KKK advise their members to home school their children.
