[quote=Anonymous][quote][b]One of my dearest friends is a red-shirting tiger mom.[/b] What a combination! Love her dearly even though we have very different parenting styles. I understand that her child-rearing is in keeping with cultural norms. She loves her boys dearly and is doing what she believes will help them be successful in life. Isn't that what all good parents do? The fact that I disagree with her approach doesn't mean that she is a horrible mom, anymore than my more laid back approach makes me a horrible mom. We respect one another's differences and have actually learned a thing or two from the other person's approach and have gained an understanding of the cultural and societal differences driving our decisions. [/quote] Unusual combo as reshirting is generally what rich whites do in search of competive advantage for their children. Immigrant families tend not to redshirt in my experience.[/quote]
