We All Want To Do The Right

Parenting Cannot Just Be One Size Fits All.

When I'm Not The Tiger Mom, I'm A Professor At Yale Law School, And If One Thing Is Clear To Me From Years Of Teaching, It's That There Are Many Ways To Produce Fabulous Kids. I Have Amazing Students; Some Of Them Have Strict Parents, Others Have Lenient Parents, And Many Come From Family Situations That Defy Easy Description.

But Just Because You Love Something, I Added To Myself, Doesn't Mean You'll Ever Be Great. Not If You Don't Work. Most People Stink At The Things They Love.

Oddly Enough, I'm Not A Particularly Judgmental Person. I Just Don't Have A Lot Of Filtering When I'm In 'tiger Mother' Mode. I Say What Comes Into My Head.

I Do Believe That When Your Child Does Poorly On A Test, Your First Step Should Not Necessarily Be To Attack The Teacher Or The School's Curriculum. It Should Be To Look At The Idea That, Maybe, The Child Didn't Work Hard Enough.
