[quote=Anonymous][quote]Have you ever met a Tiger Coach (mentor) of any idolized sporting franchise (Team America) in this country that did not push his players?  If a Coach can push and have high expectations of his/her players why is it criminal for parents to have similar expectations for their kids?   That's why many Tiger parents are laughing all the hypocrisy of American culture. They love their winning sports teams -- coaches and players but are jealous and envious of Tiger parents as they try to justify their laissez-faire philosophy in raising, guiding and nurturing their own children?  Please name any one of your adored sporting clubs with Coaches (all Tiger) that didn't push their players.  As a former athlete, I understand the concept of Tiger parents and why their Tiger cubs love them.  As a former athlete, I loved my Tiger coach who pushed me (when I wanted to quit and get on the couch) and got the best out of me.  We are still very close friends many years later.  I relate to the dynamic of why Tiger cubs love their Tiger moms.
