Amy Chua beleives that "nothing is fun until you're good at it. To get good at anything you have to work and children on their own never want to work, which is why it is crucial to override their preferences."Do you agree with her? And have your parents and forced you to do something you do not like to? How is the result? Share one of your experiences.
王淇:
I don't agree with Tiger Mother. She is too strict with her daughters, which does harm to her daughters. It may give her daughters too much stress, and make them unhappy. In short , no matter who I am and where I am, I would object to her.
方文浩:
I have recently read Battle Hymn of Tiger Mother published by The Penguin Press. That American mother gives me the biggest inspiration is not in her education method itself,in fact,I don't quite agree with the method of education.She is extremely inhuman, its harsh and demanding extent even than Chinese mother. Make me the biggest benefit is Cai Meier shown in education process, adhere to the daughter, and diligent pursuit of self-confidence.

A few days ago,I read a book called Battle Hymm of the Tiger Mother. At first, I thought the book maybe was about animal. However, it is a real story of a Chinese family in America.
The mother in the family is very strict with her daughters in different ways , for example , the mother does not permit her daughter to take part in their friends’ party and so on.I am certain that the daughters are not have enough happiness in their childhood.They have not only peer pressure but also the mother gives them.
As a Chinese, I have known this was traditional Chinese parents’ education,which was not beneficial to children. Firstly, the children do not have children’ happiness such as watching TV, sleeping in bed. What’s more, the children will have a bad habit of depending on others. Last but not least, the children will not choose their lives in the future because their parents do not give them chance to choose.

The Chinese Mother—On Generational Decline
I think that it’s wrong to teach children in ways like representative “Chinese Mother”, though Amy Chua’s children are really successful. Amy Chua is a typical representative of “Chinese Mother”.
Some of the things that Amy Chua never allowed her daughters to do are ridiculous, for example “never choose their own extracurricular activities” and “play an instrument other than the piano or violin”. In order to teach children not to be irresolute when they grow up, we should let them to do their own choice, like extracurricular activities. In addition, except the piano and violin, there are other instruments which are worth learning to play. For example, wind instruments can increase our vital capacity. So, Amy Chua is a control freak.
If Amy Chua’s children are not so gifted, perhaps her education will fail. Her firstborn daughter, Sophia, “She was intellectually precocious, and at eighteen months she knew the alphabet”. They took part in many music competitions and won a lot of awards. It’s still difficult for a normal person to be an expert in music like genius by practicing a lot. Clearly, her children are extremely talented.
According to I mentioned above, I disagree with “Chinese Mother” ‘s education. A “Chinese Mother” who doesn’t have smart children and enough money to train her children, perhaps she cannot succeed.

As we all know,most Chinese mothers are strict with their children.However, I don't think it is good for us. For children,they should be allowed to take part in extracurricular activities,but not just do their homework. Parents put too much pressure on their children, which will affact children's mental health.As a saying goes:All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.It is wrong for the mother to stop children playing computer games and watching TV.
In my opinion, Parents don't need to be too strict with their children.Give the children a good childhood!
曾芷欣:
With the development of science and technology,the studyind pressures is increasing rapidly.A lady called tiger mother,however,gives much stress to her daugther and she even forces her daugther to spend a large amount of time playing piano without having a rest.What a tiger mother!
Though her daugthers are very excellent,I will never agree with what she had done to her daugther.It may be bad for her daugthers' health.In addition,people may have a bad memory of childhood losting happiness.Causing psychological shadows may happen too.
郑睿菲:
In the past few days, I have read an interesting book which was called Battle Hymn of Tiger Mother. In the book, the Tiger Mother doesn't allow her children to attend a sleepover, have a playdate,be in a school play, watch TV or play computer games and so on. I am very surprised at her education mode and I think her children may suffer from huge pressure. In my opinion, tiger mother can let her children much harder, but she also lets her children without their own time and her family is also unhappy. If tiger mother can be much patienter with her children and less strict requirements, her children may have a better and happier childhood.

The book Battle Hymn of theTiger Mother is very famous in the world.It leds to a many parents talk about the educational ways of Chinese parents and Western parents.Lots of readers think that the two daughter are always painful about their mother’s education.Indeed,they loves their mothers so much and very appreciate her.without her ,they can’t become successful and live the life they dream.Everybody read the book and very surprised how cruel the mother is.Plenty of people worry about the two children‘s mental health .They think it in their own way.they think the mother hurt the children and drive them have an unhappy childhood.But in fact,because of the strict,the two children have ability to get in the top university in the world.This situation is common in society now.People in the network watch what happened in the world.Through the computer or telephone they can only see a few information about a thing.So they express their thoughts and feelings in their ways.More and more people see it and then more and more mistakes are made.And the misunderstand become wider and wider.It not only influent other people ‘s thoughts,but also have an effect on the peole who belong to the event.
