[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if you could have become the Tiger Mom, you would have been one already.

Becoming a Tiger Mom means that you have to be super organized, super strategic and super hardworking.  The angst against TM happens mainly because others can'y work that hard and make that many sacrifices for their children. [/quote]

op - i disagree that if I could have, I would have. I operate at a super high level at work, and have had no problem with organization or implementing a strategy as it pertains to anything I have prioritized. 
I didn't do it for a bunch of other reasons, primarily that I think I just thought it would happen organically...[/quote]

I'm not the PP you replied to OP but I agree that you would already be a Tiger Mom by now.  You simply do not have the tunnel vision of a Tiger Mom - who would push achievement at the expense of all else - you are more nuanced and able to be a good parent to your "whole child" not just to some external outcome. In the long run the social part is very important, not just for mental health but for managing life and work.[/quote]
