And does that divergence appear in all races worldwide, or is it more a socioeconomic situation, that appears among all minorities ( every race is in some part of the world a minority, so that is something to consider) ?

It may be worth starting another thread.
This would be an interesting discussion. Though I should point out that Asian Americans (who make up 4% of the population) are the least likely to be raised in single-parent households.

This is slightly off-topic, but I find it interesting when "race realists" point to East Asians as being the most successful and having the highest median incomes, but don't take into account that Asians are the most likely group to live in multi-generaitonal households.They also tend to live to live in the most expensive metropolitan areas, more than all other races, which means higher rent and cost of living. When you take into account these variables they probably have less of a disposable income than most whites.
