On 'Tiger Moms"

[flea]

Since Casper, who is now nearly seven and a half, was born, we've had: Attachment Parenting, Helicopter Parents, Slacker Moms, Free-Range Kids, Motherhood in the Age of Anxiety (i.e. ADD Kids), Indigo Children ... and I'm sure I've forgotten some.

So I can barely raise an eyebrow at the Tiger Mom.

But I did get Casper to rewrite her homework more neatly, with spelling corrections, tonight.  (Report card came home yesterday, and she's doing better in her problem areas but neatness and spelling remain the big issues.  Still an A+ art student.)

Tiger mom is setting us back decades in racial issues. I roll my eyes.
