JIMMY did you catch this?
I tried to post the WSJlink but there's something funky going on with it...this Chinese-American mom attempted to explain the stereotypical academic etc. success of Chinese(American) children with regard to parenting philosophies and cultural difference and apparently people went bonkers....
Amy Chua Sets Off Firestorm With 'Chinese Mother' Essay
Tiger Mother, Books News
When Amy Chua published a list of things her children "were never allowed to do" growing up, including "attend a sleepover," "watch TV or play computer games," and "get any grade less than an A," in The Wall Street Journal on January 8, the Yale Law professor and author ignited a firestorm of controversy from bloggers, newspaper columnists and, of course, parents across the country. The rules were excerpted from her forthcoming book "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother," which describes her journey as a Chinese-American mother.
The responses to Chua's article have been so vitriolic that The Journal even published a follow-up piece with Chua responding to readers' questions. Additionally, as noted on ABC News, the original Journal column might have highlighted only one piece of Chua's parenting philosophy
