This document summarizes a study on the effects of minority parents' participation in society on their children's educational outcomes. The study used data from 10,680 children in the Netherlands to analyze relationships between parental ethnicity, education, participation in different domains (e.g. labor, religion), and children's language, math and social skills. The results showed a consistent positive effect of parents' cultural participation (e.g. attending concerts) on children's language and math abilities, supporting the idea of cultural capital. However, the hypothesis that greater parental integration would more broadly promote children's education received only partial confirmation. Higher expectations for immigrant children's chances may need to be more realistic.
