[quote=Anonymous]I'm Indian, and was considered a major slacker by my family and our circle of friends because I majored in English and chose to write for blogs and magazines for a living. I'll only redeem myself if I get a book deal or if I start an amazing blog out of all this. The Indian community can be very demanding and judgmental - everyone has extremely high standards of success and push the kids to achieve or surpass that. There is also a lot of love and nurturing, of course, but one thing I like about "western" parenting is that there is more emphasis on doing what you love, less emphasis on status/prestige/power.[/quote]
