I just read comment 36. I will add an anecdote from a Kelek book, Die verlorenen Soehne: In an interview with a Turkish teen who was in a youth correctional institution. She asked how it was there, and he replied, “not so bad. It’s the first time anyone ever paid attention to me.” Anyone who tries to deny such problems within the Turkish community in Germany is condemning future generations to a worse fate.

Once again, this is not the situation for all Turks, but the more it dominates social norms, the worse things will be for everyone.
