In text 1 “why I love my strict Chinese mom” by Sophia Chau-Rubenfeld who is the daughter of Amy Chau, Sophia tells how it is to be rearing by a strict mother and how she sees her rearing by her mother. The mother Amy Chau is earlier been criticized because she in her released essay “why Chinese mothers are superior” tells about her very tough ways to rear her kids. Amy Chau’s daughter Sophia think her rearing was good, and decided to write an official essay back to her mother, where she tells about how good it is to be rearing by a so called tiger mom.
Furthermore Sophia tells in the beginning of the text how she thinks her mother has been unjustly judged, because her rearing wasn’t that bad as people actually thought. She admits that her mum was very strict but that is only something she is very happy for to this very day. Even though she wasn’t allowed to do several things in her childhood she thinks her mum is the reason why she is a strong an independent girl today who can take her own decisions.
Dr Bryan Caplan who is a parenting guru thinks the opposite of the so called tiger moms. He tells in the text “let them eat pizza: Parenting guru’s recipe for upbringing up children” children should be able to do exactly what they want to do. He thinks too many parents are trying to form their children as successful adults, which he also thinks is impossible.
