Western Parents V.S Asian Parents

  After reading that piece of article, I have got to say that there are some pretty biased things in there. I think not all Asian parents are like this, my mom doesn't chase after me with a stick everytime I get a B on a test, not every Asian parents are like this. The Asian teaching and parenting system is very different from the Western way of teaching. My parents are just like the American way of teaching, they like to use praises rather than words to make me feel ashamed or feel guilty. There are many people in this world with this type of parents and they would be Asian too! I joined a musical in school, I go out with friends, I get rides over the weekend, I watch TV and uses the computer all day long. I don't think this applies to all Asian parents. This reminds me of how great my parents actually are and how un-strict they are when it comes to academic performances and my social life. They would not care if I had a girlfriend, unless it had major affects on my grades, then that is when they start. They would not care if I had my own life and made choices I wanted to make for myself rather than them making the choices for me. My parents are very loose parents. I don't feel choked and struggling under the whips of their parenting methods. I love my parents.
