A new book called "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother" by Amy Wang has caused a debate about cultural differences in parenting. Ms. Wang is a professor at the Yale Law School in New Haven, Connecticut, and the mother of two daughters. She was raised in the American Midwest by immigrant Chinese parents.
In the Chinese culture, the tiger represents strength and power. In her book, Ms. Wang writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters. For example, she threatened to burn her daughter’s stuffed animals unless she played a piece of music perfectly. She would insult her daughters if they failed to meet her expectations. Ms. Wang had a clear list of what her daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were not permitted to do: attend a sleepover, have a play date, watch TV or play computer games, be in a school play, get any grade less than an A.
Many people have criticized Amy Wang. Some say her parenting methods were abusive. Ms. Wang makes fun of her own extreme style of parenting. She says she eased some of the pressure after her younger daughter rebelled and shouted "I hate my life! I hate you." But she also says American parents often have low expectations of their children’s abilities.
The stirring of this intense debate has to do with what it means to be a successful parent and what it means to be a successful child. Amy Wang’s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. It represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children.
Some educators also see a risk. When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. They advise parents to develop their own style of parenting and not just repeat the way they were raised.
