[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have missed the window, that’s a good thing. Amy Chua’s kids basically hate her. So do her students. [/quote] ' As she looks back on her college experience, Lulu has a newfound appreciation for her mother’s brutal parenting style. “People assume that tiger parenting would beget low self-esteem because there isn’t that constant praise, but I think I’m exiting with a lot more confidence than some others, because my confidence is earned,” she says. “[My mom] gave me the tools to drive my own confidence.” While she’s still figuring out what she will do after graduation — she’s considering law school and a move to New York City — she says she does know one thing. “I will definitely be a tiger mom,” she says. “It’s not a blanketly bad thing to push. Sometimes it just means you really believe in your child.”' [/quote]
