"Chinese parents can get away with things that Western parents can't. Once when I was young—maybe more than once—when I was extremely disrespectful to my mother, my father angrily called me "garbage" in our native Hokkien dialect. It worked really well. I felt terrible and deeply ashamed of what I had done. But it didn't damage my self-esteem or anything like that. I knew exactly how highly he thought of me. I didn't actually think I was worthless or feel like a piece of garbage."
this sounds extremely familiar to my life. though my mother longer his here to force me into playing an instrument, my parents still try their very best to keep me in being more of my original heritage and try to prevent me from becoming more American. They are very cautions on allowing me in hanging out with those of different races, but if that friend is Polish or at least white, then they allow me to stay as long as I want.
My parents behave like her parents. If dare to say something that is against them, they would call me something quite negative. They always use the excuse “because I am an adult” whenever they both to violate their own words of some sort. Though this is unfair, I get loads of discipline and improvement in my moral character.
I strongly disagree with what she says that Chinese mothers are superior. She is comparing with the entire world and that assumption can easily be proven wrong. She thinks that Chinese mothers are the only ones who actually raise their children correctly and that is totally false. She thinks it is only Chinese care the most about their children's grade but that is a false assumption. China doe not even have the world's best education system (though it is good).
