[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I want my kid to be a well rounded happy person. 
Happiness is the purpose and goal in life. 
Do whatever you think is the best for your kid. 
That's all.[/quote]

I see you actually believe you have a monopoly on these goals and Asian Americans or other groups don't want their kids to be happy, well rounded, and happiness as a goal in life?  Are you of the "one size fits all" for happiness in life ... and that size is your size?

You bet, other parents are doing what is best for their children, and they have happy children and what they are doing for their children may not be what you doing for your children.  Do you have a problem with this or do you want to continue to dictate to peoples around the world and your own fellow citizens what happiness is and how they should live?  What happened to the first amendment and free enterprise?

Nope, actually that's my point.  Every kid is different.  So... you don't need to worry about other kids spending 10% of time spending physical activities and 90% in academics, vice versa, 50:50, whatever.  Or being tiger mom or packaging the kids, etc..
You know your kids the best and especially smart parents in the forum would probably do the right things to maximize happiness of the kids throughout their lives.

There maybe cases parents driving kids unhappy, but that's ok, too.. not my kids.
