[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind if personality can a child have when they were pushed to do worksheets and study for tests since very early age?

When they didn’t have free time, play time, unstructured time?

When they were not given any space to develop their own interests and passions, but were told by their parents that it was decided for them they must become a doctor/engineer/lawyer?

This is a recipe for a very plain personality.[/quote]

Take the L, pp and move on.  Or, should I say take the "B" for "bigot."
You believe that people who excel (and are of a certain ethnicity - you don't say this, but we know who you are talking about) spend all their time studying and doing rote worksheets and are precluded from playing with others.  You think these kids are forced into certain occupations by their parents.  And, as a result, they are "plain" people.

You are pushing a stereotype that is totally false.  I just have to wonder how many of these kids you know.  [/quote]

It’s not stereotype. This what I see in Asian families in DC’s school. It’s true. Admit it.

DC’s Indian friend jokes they have four options - to become a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer or an embarrassment to their family.[/quote]

You are promoting a stereotype based on your interactions with ONE kid.  
And, you are making assumptions based on what you "see" in your kid's school.  
Ever stop to think that you might be missing something because of your bigotry?[/quote]

Who said ONE kid? DC’s school is at least 25% Asian. I’ve seen a lot of them, trust me and I know their families and I know what they do and how they do it.[/quote]
