Some Parents Let Their Kids Sleep At

Western Parents Try To Respect Their Children’s Individuality, Encouraging Them To Pursue Their True Passions, Supporting Their Choices, And Providing Positive Reinforcement And A Nurturing Environment. By Contrast, The Chinese Believe That The Best Way To Protect Their Children Is By Preparing Them For The Future, Letting Them See What They’re Capable Of, And Arming Them With Skills, Work Habits, And Inner Confidence That No One Can Ever Take Away.

I Do Think That Maybe, Even Subconsciously, A Lot Of Parents In The West Are Wondering, Have We Gone Too Far In The Direction Of Coddling And Protecting - You Know, You See Kids, Sometimes That Seem Very Rude And Disrespectful. And The More Important Thing Is They Don't Seem That Happy.

When I'm Not The Tiger Mom, I'm A Professor At Yale Law School, And If One Thing Is Clear To Me From Years Of Teaching, It's That There Are Many Ways To Produce Fabulous Kids. I Have Amazing Students; Some Of Them Have Strict Parents, Others Have Lenient Parents, And Many Come From Family Situations That Defy Easy Description.

Every Day That You Don't Practice Is A Day You're Getting Worse.

All Decent Parents Want To Do What's Best For Their Children. The Chinese Just Have A Totally Different Idea Of How To Do That.
