The early XY advantage.
A friend in education relayed some direct experiences they had with two children from the same family.
The girl needed some additional resources to get to the reading level she needed to be. The parents answer was "nope, she doesn't need it."
A couple years later, their boy comes through the same classroom and receives the same assessment. "Get him everything he needs to catch up" said the parents.
Subtle oppression, anyone?
