[quote=Anonymous]When I read "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother", I was so relieved not to be the worst! The reason I push my asian child is because he is differently-abled, and I want him to learn he can succeed just as well or better than his peers if he puts in the work. I want him to be confident in his abilities and think of himself as smart instead of stupid. So far this has led to academic success and better self-esteem. Personally I am half-asian, but my parents never pushed me hard, although they did prize academics above all else. [/quote]
