OT - Doug, fighting among Bosnian and Croatian children must be the result of their displacement. I spent three years living in each country and saw exactly one fist fight among people of any age, an old guy punching a young guy in Zagreb who got into a parking space ahead of him.

Bosnian kids were remarkably well adjusted given what they had lived through and grown up with. In six years, I never once had the slightest hassle from kids on the street, day or night. That includes the teenagers who often make trouble in other societies.

You are right that almost everyone from former Yugoslavia that emigrates does very well. They are smart, capable people who lived in a very messed up system followed by fascist, nationalist rule. Sad.
