Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother:
A lot of people wonder how Chinese parents raise such stereotypically successful kids. They wonder what these parents do to
produce so many math whizzes and music prodigies, what it's like inside the family, and whether they could do it too. Well, I can
tell them, because I've done it. Here are some things my daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were never allowed to do:
-- attend a sleepover
-- have a playdate
-- be in a school play
-- complain about not being in a school play
-- watch TV or play computer games
-- choose their own extracurricular activities
-- get any grade less than an A
-- not be the No. 1 student in every subject except gym and drama
-- play any instrument other than the piano or violin
-- not play the piano or violin
My kids attended sleepover and playdate,
- can be in school play, watch TV and play computer games,
- they choose their own extracurricular activities.
- I will be happier to save money if they decide not to learn piano and violin, I told them I will stop to support their piano/violin class if they do not like practice at home.
- OK if they want to play other instruments other than piano or violin, my girl think to learn Saxophone one day.
- OK to get grade other than A, English is only B for my both kids at this moment.
- We are not be the No. 1 student in every subject, school reports, three highs and 6 outstanding, I am still happy as I could not get HDs in all of my subjects, got D in some subjects when I was studying my master degree in UNSW, I think it is unfair to require kids to achieve what we could not achieve when we were student before.
Happy with their current achievement as they already achieved more than mum, I could not swim, kids are good swimmer already. I cannot play piano/violin, they can already play some songs to entertain mum.
