[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know what the chua rubenfeld cubs are up to now? Last I checked they seemed to have incredible outcomes. I don’t see how she can regret what she did if it they have done so well. [/quote]

Not only that but the cubs seem close to their parents. I'm sure Chua doesn't regret every aspect of her parenting, but she did go overboard at points and it sounds like she regrets this. They probably would have been equally successful if she hadn't been so nuts. Just because we make mistakes as parents doesn't mean we necessarily ruin our kids, but it's obviously better not to make those mistakes to begin with. I have aspirations for my kid and I will admit it, because I think she is bright and I want her to be resilient. I want to encourage her to do her best with the gifts she has. However, that doesn't mean I don't want her to also be happy and have a good relationship with her dad and me. I definitely don't want to be extreme as Chua was because even she thinks she was too extreme and that it was unnecessary. [/quote]
