I really did not notice it because it is so commonly used. One key diversity issue facing educators today is having to understand their students. What I mean by this, is that teachers have to understand that students form different backgrounds look at things in different ways. With the Hispanic cultures, education is not very important. Most Hispanic parents want their children to learn a trade and start working so the they can help the family out.
Family is very important to the Hispanic culture.
Sometimes even more important than educating yourself. I know that it sounds different but it is just the way the culture is. This leads many Hispanic students to drop out of school and start working so that they can help their families. It is just a unwritten rule. Some educators just cannot understand this.
