I am sure they also feel regret somewhere in their life and thus, making us do things. I believe this kind of parenting is not healthy and should never be encouraged. A kid should have the freedom to choose whatever they want to become in their life. This kind of parenting runs in the family. My grandmother used to beat up my mom when she was younger and she was also verbally abusive but they never realised it. So now my mom also does the same to me.

grew up in HK, I hate the way HKers, mainland Chinese, or some other Asian parents raise their children. In my childhood, 80% of parents around me talked to their children in a very traditional way which includes scolding, yelling, blaming, abusing, everything was just too negative. But now I think things got better and may be half of parents are like that. On the flip side, majority of parents in China still talk to their kids without respect, as if children have no feelings like robot. I personally think that children need love, care, encouragement, company , and respect way more than just lecturing or threatening. I am treating my children like my friends, I joke with them, I talk to them with respect, I play and share my experiences with them. I praise and encourage them a lot too. I get serious sometimes only when they cross the boundary. They do feel motivated to learn things when they get recognized and complemented by me. When I was a child, I never got complemented by my parents, they would just said I was stupid and useless, and compared me with other better kids. What's the damn point of hurting your own kids' feelings I mean. Furthermore, adults talk to adults in very negative way too, I understand that human get jealous sometimes , but there's no point to cut someone's head to make yourself feel taller. Moreover, most of the teachers I met also verbally abused their students, they basically gave up on those students that didn't do well at school. Western values and cultures are just too different. In comparison, western parents would say " love you" to their kids almost everyday. But a big portion of Asian parents would not even say that to their children in the whole life. Don't get me wrong that Asian/Chinese Culture is all bad, they study hard, work hard, they are family oriented etc etc...But when it comes to parenting and teaching at school , it's just too cruel. Children with a fragile heart deserve more love, encouragement, patience, recognition and positive complements.

My grades was still the same though, the typical between 70-90 which they are always so disappointed in. My mom keeps saying that orchestra is affecting my grades and tells me to quit orchestra. I tell them that co-curriculum marks are important too but guess what my mom said? She said that universities prioritize grades more than co-curriculum activities. I honestly don't know how to convince her to understand... Sorry you had to listen to me rant

David Morales Why? The race insulting on this topic is so unnecessary. First of all, Hispanics and black people are on par with college statistics due to affirmative action, in some fields Hispanics are actually higher up smartass. In terms of test scores, Hispanics tend to score slightly higher than black people, thus the point advantage for black people which in most cases isn't significant enough to make a difference. The numbers based on population look worse for Hispanic students in some areas because there are so many more of you. Besides, affirmative action was invented to help remedy the centuries of negative impact slavery, Jim Crow and segregation has had on black students. While there is an obvious mistreatment of Hispanics (especially those from immigrant, non-English speaking, low income households), it is not on the same level of what we've been through systematically. Hispanics are actually benefiting from race equality initiatives more than black people. Let's not get into who's more "deserving" of these points. That's an argument you will lose.

Justin Nizza That is sat II math. Its a sat subject test. The majority of ppl get 800's because of the curve.

Girl: "Dad!, I got 760!" Dad: "aw I wish you did better" I am Indian so we are very similar to other Asians culturally when it comes to material successes. This was me in the 9th grade when I showed my mom my report card full of straight B's and B+'s. My parents had moved to a school district with more rich white people so i would get a better education. So my basically spit on report card and started yelling about what disappointment I am and how they had to sell the house to move here. I would get around 80-87 on my exams and would get As on report cards the next semester and that still was not good enough! and from they were comparing me to they were right. The sons and daughters of their indian friends had straight As and not even A-'s. They were honor roll kids who were excelling in school, my parents held me to that standard when I knew i could never compare self them to those kids and never wanted to. It was all about pleasing my folks and not thinking for myself. I was close with my English teacher and told him about the pressures I had home, he even would send notes in report cards stating how much of good job i was doing and told my parents to appreciate the progress I'm making. Eventually he even got my guidance counselor to set up a meeting with my parents, they brought in research showing that pressurizing adolescents to excel and constantly telling them that they are no good is detrimental to their mental health. Anyways they did not care to listen to information on how to raise their kids by white people. They also made the point on how I am an first generation immigrant that does not have the luxury of being like other white kids, and that I have no family or relatives in America to take care of after they are gone. So unlike spoiled white kids I was going to have to provide for myself. I had my own issues and i'm not entirely blaming my parents as I do take responsibility for my life but this pressure to be brilliant pushed me downward spiral of mental health issues. Fast forward with legal issues and few stays at rehab, I ended having to drop out of high school. I understand that all parents want is for their kids to live better than they did, but this pressure to go above and beyond has great possibility of Back firing and could make the kid revolt against what their parents want. I've grown being ashamed of indian culture because of all this and honestly am not proud of my heritage. A great problem with our generation is that we crave material things so much, well that how we are raised to be!! dont just call us entitled millennials! your reap what you sow! which is our fucked generation of adults. Anyways I'm in college now and chose a liberal arts school full of music majors, there's a lot of hippies and stoners at my college that are living life one step at time and thats they way it should be

I’m Asian and I understood this was the early 2000s but dude, this is crazy af. My parents were immigrants and so am I. They never got a chance to study high school due to financial difficulties yet they’ve built a quite comfortable life completely from scratch. Education is important but seriously, as long as ur kid can get a job and be able to feed themselves when they reach adulthood, why stress them so much?? It’s sad to watch this video, it’s even sadder that we still have the same pressure in our school system nowadays.

As a Japanese who was born and raised in Kyoto in the most traditional way, these american asian kids have it SO easy. My parents were 10 times stricter and harsher on me. I didn't have more than 3 hours of sleep a day from age 12 to age 18. I studied 18 hours a day then had to go to martial arts lessons. If i had complained even once my parents would have kicked me out of the house at 15 years old and told me to manage by myself and i would have never seen them again. And i am a man i had it easy, because girls had to study twice harder because their mothers wanted them to succeed while their father told them that all they needed to do was marry a rich man and have kids (and become slaves of their mother in law). Plus girls on top of studying constantly had to also take care of everything in the house, cleaning, cooking washing up, laundry, and on top of that piano and violin lessons, and in even stricter Japanese families had to learn the tea ceremony, incense ceremony, flowers arranging, calligraphy, etc, ... For me, the lives of these american asian kids feels like a spa. And i should not even complain, at least i am Japanese, if i were Korean, it would be even harder, because there the pressure is twice harder than Japan and the parents also starve the girls to death and send them to plastic surgeon to make sure they look like models, and boy are expected to look like GI Joes (which eventually completely destroys their self-esteem). Asian parents are insanely toxic and the most toxic thing of all is that love that parents have for their kids is not unconditional, you have to deserve it and earn it twith straight A's and impeccable behaviour and when you fail they will scold you and make you feel like you have shamed the entire family since the first ancestor and for generations to come and will tell you that they curse the day you were born, that you are worthless and useless and cost them only worries and money. In the west if a western kid bring home 9 A's and on B the parents will be thrilled and overjoyed and will maybe even get a present for the kid, when i did this, my parents scold me for 3 hours for not getting 10 A's and sent me to my room to study for a full month and brought food to my room, and i was only allowed to leave it to use the toilets, bathe or go to school. And the door was constantly open so that my mother could check on me all the time. When i am asked why the suicide rate of people between age 10 and 18 is so high in Japan, i always answer that my only surprise is that it is not higher.

I'm getting depressed watching this. My immigrant parents never fit the stereotypes of a typical immigrant parent. They didn't pressure me, they made me love learning and as long as I got an education they'd be happy wherever I went. They actually encouraged me to go to a good community college so that I wasn't stressed lol. They made sure that I had fun in my teenage years. I ended up going to Princeton and no I didn't have perfect scores or so many APs, I had my ups and downs, didn't do 1000 ecas. I was just passionate about one thing and I focused on that.

Nah, most people who even apply to Harvard Princeton Yale have full score acts and full scores on 3-4 SAT subjects tests. For Asians, that's practically expected for any applicant. You need extracurriculars and leadership on top of that. Even non hyp like Penn, Dartmouth, Cornell, and Brown have like a 2-3% acceptance rate for Asians, and most of them applying will have full scores. It's crazy.

He blamed not doing any extra curricular and his obsession to his school rank. He ended up going to Cornell. Other stories like this were not uncommon in my school.

The problem here is focusing too much on grades makes other aspects of your applications weaker. But these are expectations colleges themselves place on asian applicants. URMs have it easy when it comes to colleges.

Wow, I’m Asian and I’m so glad my parents are not like that!! Yes, they do care about my grades and want me to do well in school, but all they care about is that they want me to be happy in life. They don’t care what job I have, what school I go to, etc. They want what’s best for me and also my siblings. I feel bad for them and I really hope they can find happiness in life and that what their parents can realize what they’ve done and become better people.

I think this was also one of the things that really fucked me up as well. My parents expected me to do SO WELL that my grades actually started to slip. I hated it, I damn near went into a spiral of depression and lack of motivation and loathing myself. It wasn't until I moved away from my family that I learned that not everything is all based on grades. Right now, I'm going to my dream college, I've got a whole lot of connections and I'm excited to see where the future leads me.

I think it is important to let their kids pick what career they want to follow with guidance of course. But still leaving the path entirely to them. That’s what my mom did for me. When I was younger I wanted to be an art teacher and my mom said ok. Then I wanted to be an author and she said ok I’ll support you. Then I said I wanted to be a cop. Through all of that she supported me, and I always really appreciated her for that.

It's not certain you would make money off of video games, and i understand completely how the parents think. Asian parents come to America living a hard life. Taxes cost a lot. College costs more here than anywhere else in the world. People said America was the land of opportunity, it turned out to not be much better here. But they don't want their kids to live like they did, so they work hard, have their kids study hard, and have them go to a good school so they can make money and be happy in life.

J Ho but depriving them from things they want to do is just horrible. They should be outside, hanging with friends, or something they want to do. Obviously they should still work hard in school but there should be a balance. Are the parents really gonna waste their kids childhood? Like someone is gonna ask them one day when they're older and be like "man don't you ever just wanna go back to your childhood" they're gonna say fuck that shit cause all they did was study. I'm savouring my childhood for as long as I can because I only have a couple years till I'm an adult.

I'm lucky to say that my parents always support me even when I fail. This pandemic was really challenging to me especially i don't know how to use gadgets that much. When the time comes where it was giving of grades, I was shocked to see a 75 grade in one of my subject. I cried because I was so scared since it was my first time to have that low in my card. I cried so much and trying to figure out how to tell it to my parents. Then my father entered and saw me crying. He saw my card and I told him I'm sorry for that grade. He just hug me and told me he was proud of me. He said he didn't care about the grade because he always see that I was working hard for my studies. And that is enough for him. My mom also told me that every one fails in one point in their life but she told me that they will always be there for me. I'm so lucky to have them.

my dad is a foreigner but nothing like them. I am currently attending a very prestigious school, and have maintained a 4.0, but have never felt pressure from any of my parents to succeed. watching videos like these make me feel so blessed.

Just because colleges have to abide by some form of affirmative action doesn't mean that they're letting in "morons". if you think about it logically, most colleges cost a lot of money and require a lot of fees, and most people cant pay them alone, let alone those from underprivileged backgrounds who are generally minorities (going by the populations who have a higher percentage of people living under the poverty line where African Americans, Latinos/Hispanics, and Native Americans are over 20% near 25, and Caucasians and Asians at around 10-12% federalsafetynet.com/us-poverty-statistics.html www.census.gov/prod/2013pubs/acsbr11-17.pdf). And if those people can't pay, then you probably won't let them in, even if they are qualified in terms of grades and test scores. I feel that affirmative coxed colleges into giving more people a chance to receive an education who wouldn't have otherwise, and even with those lucky few, some colleges stop after they get their number since they are not obligated to do anything else, so its still not "fair"

What happened to Sophie is exactly the cause of why so many Asians have complained about being rejected by the Ivy league in recent days. They think it's a racial discrimination issue when at its core, it's just extreme tiger parenting that drove their chances to the ground. These schools don't just care about your grades and tests scores - most of them don't even require tests scores these days. They want well rounded students, meaningful extracurriculars, and demonstrations of leadership. Sophie could have easily gotten into several or all of these schools if she'd had been left enough space to be a normal teenager and explore different passions. Her parents fucked up her future, not to mention her mental health. I know some people will hesitate to qualify that as abuse, but I won't.

I, as an Asian daughter, am going to tell you something I wholeheartedly believe. I have gotten A's in all my classes and only one B in my entire 4 years at high school. I had 3 teachers and a cousin proofread my college essays. But here's the thing: I was never allowed to do any after-school activities because my parents didn't want me to walk home (I live 20 minutes away from school) and they wouldn't let me get a ride from other students' parents (because I'd be "bothering" their parents). Thank goodness, there were during school clubs I was a part of but I was never able to get any volunteer hours done. So when I applied to college and went after top schools like Stanford, Northwestern, and Columbia, I was rejected from them all. Luckily my essays and during-school clubs were good enough to get me into UC Irvine and UC San Diego, but I have a great suspicion that had I been able to do after-school activities, I could have gotten into an Ivy League.

My parents would not let me walk home because it's a dangerous world out there. 20 minutes away is far for a walk, especially for a girl. I believe their reasons for not letting you do after-school activities were justified. I did my other activities on the weekends. If I had a daughter, I don't care what school she went into, as long as she is alive and healthy. There are a lot of bad people out there, and a lone girl walking down the streets is easy prey.
