![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Chinese-parenting model certainly seemed to produce results. And they had to practice their instruments for hours every day, as well as in school breaks and on family holidays. But Sophia and Lulu were never allowed to attend a sleepover, be in a school play, choose their own extracurricular activities, get any grade less than an A, and not be the #1 student in every subject (except gym and drama). Well, I can tell them, because I've done it.Īmy Chua's daughters, Sophia and Louisa (Lulu) were polite, interesting and helpful, they were two years ahead of their classmates in maths and had exceptional musical abilities. They wonder what Chinese parents do to produce so many math whizzes and music prodigies, what it's like inside the family, and whether they could do it too. A lot of people wonder how Chinese parents raise such stereotypically successful kids. ![]()
