[quote=Anonymous][quote]...her misrepresentation of Amy Chua's book. That book was about the benefits of tiger parenting, yes, except when it wasn't. That's what the entire end of the book regarding her battle with Lulu and her account of her own father being estranged from his parents was about. It was about her own growth and realization that what worked for one daughter did not work for another and she had to adjust.[/quote] Thank you for posting this! I read Amy Chua's book and also did not think it advocated tiger parenting - if anything, she was poking fun at herself for being so intense and crazy after she realized it had backfired. There was a lot of self-criticism in it disguised as humor.[/quote]
