Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)

Immigrants and their children—both legal and undocumented—outperform native-born Americans on a number of measures. Children of immigrants are more likely than their U.S.-born peers to live in a two-parent household, to have a parent with a secure job, to earn a college degree, to attend religious services regularly, and to be prodigious job creators.
