Kids should be given at least 4 hours a day to daydream. Just sit and daydream, in fact some parents could use that too.

Chua blamed America's fear of Asia

That fear is completely understandable. The future is shaping up to be a grim nightmare for the West: billions of people worldwide jockeying for fewer and fewer resources and opportunities. But, hey, this is exactly what big business wants.The top 1% will prosper, the rest will suffer.

well obviously she missed what was the in thing while studying. She hasnt excelled at producing kids yet! America fears that this piece has nothing but her vanity to substantiate the relationship, Id say. There lies the satire.....fancy looking that good and being able to avoid falling pregnant. Jokes on you honey. But, do tell yourself that you made a sale.

@illsayit...

according to the article, she has daughters so it's unclear to me who you're talking about.

As for the article itself, I would have to agree that some Asian families tend to go too far with academia while some American families tend to be too lax.

well your definition of excelled has missed the point, but maybe you dont think Chua looks any good?

your generalization jonobugs, like the first time round, is boring-you need to meet some more people perhaps.....
