Your reference to 'lack of quiet time' is often understated as a stressor. I'm an African American who has been in innumerable low/middle income African American homes. More often than not it's a home with multiple siblings (and other relatives) who are often verbally sparring with each other, music and social media is constantly in the background and the shows/social media/movies/sites/music they are ingesting is mostly African American centric (or adjacent). The time for reading, focus, concentration and creativity is a rarity. Their social and emotional maturation is stunted, not to mention learning development.
