[quote=Anonymous]OP given all the various views you're seeing from the Indians on this thread -- based on whether we are 1st or 2nd gen, how we were raised etc -- I think you're probably getting the point that there are all types of Indian parenting and there isn't commonality across the board. One thing that I do think remains in common across Indian families wherever they may be/however they were raised -- they consider school to be a "kid's job" esp in higher grades like high school. That means there is some coddling in that Indian kids tend not to do formal/weekly chores because it is better that they be studying. Reality is -- no kid studies 24 hrs a day and unloading the dishwasher a few times a week won't make them get bad grades, but that's just what many Indians believe -- all laundry, food needs are taken care of so a kid only has to worry about school.[/quote]
