[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some cultures value acceleration and enrichment for their kids and others do not. There situation here between the poster and spouse is what can be defined as a clash of cultures. I suspect those who want to crucify the husband are plain white Americans and those supportive of his position are plain Asian Americans or immigrants.[/quote] Asian parents have very different expecations for their children than American parents. As Asian American parents, we are caught between our Asian heritage and our American style, between how we were raised and what we read in our (English language) books. We want our children to have all the advantages we had when we were growing up, with none of the disadvantages. We want them to be A-students and good musicians like we were, sure, but also student body presidents and successful athletes.[/quote]
