An American educator has responded to Amy Chua's Tiger Mother with
observations on Chinese parenting and a guide for raising
successful and happy American children. Carol Cooke has drawn from
her research and experience with children, parents, and colleagues
throughout a diverse career in education to share with parents how
to raise kids to be self-motivating, self-reliant, and
self-disciplined. This is in sharp contrast to Chinese parenting
which emphasizes external controls. This book addresses the
self-esteem debate, the teaching of higher level thinking at home,
ways to build a supportive, cohesive family as well as the secret
to happiness. As an educator, the author focuses less on how we
should treat our children and more on what we should teach them. It
is a must-read for all who cringed or balked at the Tiger Mother.
