One question in my mind from last few weeks and anyone who is living here for long time can tell me. Why abcd kids in Canada especially in Vancouver are more involve in crime, prostitution, drugs, car break-in and lot of other crimes a lot than abcd kids in USA? There was article in TOI couple of weeks before about Indian girls prostitution in Vancouver. Recently a Vancouver guy arrested for drug case in India.
One thing I can think here mostly people who came long time back are from small town, doing low paying jobs or own business and they are busy 7 days a week and 10 hrs a day. Mother at home is not educated and kids do not listen from both parent or parent don’t have time from their shops.
But in US, mostly parent are well educated and doing good jobs and work 40hrs/week. They have more time and those parents also understand American culture and better in bringing up their kids in US.
I am not saying all kids are bad here some I know are doing really good. I know one guy who works in security and his son is doing medical in UBC. But talking in general.
This was my thought.........yours? Good idea to share for our knowledge about what wrong here as compare to US?
I think its wrong to generalize this way in the first place.
Secondly, your assessement is completely different from mine. I've actually found Canadian born kids of desi heritage to be much better behaved than their counterparts in the states. They're less arrogant, more patient and definately more in tune with the culture of their heritage (which seems to be a big plus point for may desis)
But going back to point #1, this is only my perspective based on the kids I've dealt with. There's no way to make a general statement on where kids are better.

!00% agree with clandestinely.
Canada immigration is little tighter than previous years and I hope things will change after 10-15 yrs.
Now days lot of well educated and well rounded people are immigrating here that may bring good reputation as Canadian Indian same like American Indian have there. but it takes time.

Talking of Indian kids being cultured here, all they know about India is that it is a dirty country their parents left 25 years ago and came to Canada to file a refugee claim (Hampering the chances of a lot of genuine refugees from war torn countries like Afghanistan, Haiti and Uganda). On the other hand, you might wanna check the stats on the 'spelling bee' champs of the last few years in the US and you will find a lot of Anils, kumars and priyas. Wonder how many desi kids do that in Canada.
