[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Expecting perfect grades is pretty Tiger Mom. But to me the question is one of control. What would you do if your child wanted to quit violin and play guitar? If they wanted to do the school play instead of math team? And when the time comes, if they want to become a teacher or a physical therapist instead of an engineer or a doctor? If you are planning on making those choices for them then yes I'd say you're a Tiger Mom.[/quote] I consider myself to be a Tiger Mom. If my child wanted to do any of those things, I would try to discourage it, but if they really wanted to it of course I would accept it. I think of Tiger Moms as moms who do everything reasonable to try to get their child to have a certain outcome, but I think very few would actually be unaccepting of their child, if their ideals didn't pan out.
