More Students' Responses to Amy Chua's "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior"
In the entry posted the day before yesterday are some responses to Amy Chua's article from Class 309. Here are some by Class 314, done on Friday.
1. I don't agree with Amy Chua. Her children have gained a lot of skills and knowledge, but it is Amy's will, not the children's. Her daughters cannot choose what they want. They are just their mom's dolls. The way Amy Chua raised her kids is totally wrong. Though many Chinese parents think they push the children for their own good, they are just imposing their thoughts on their children. When the children grow up, without their parents' supervision, they will not know why they need to learn and get lost in the maze called life. (31405)

Students' Responses to the Article "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior"
Yesterday and today, I had Classes 309 and 314 read part of the article "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior" in class. This article from Wall Street Journal was written by Amy Chua, a Chinese mother in the States who believes in the "No pains, no gains" and "Spare the rod, spoil the child" doctrine. Her book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother has generated public interest and heated debate in both the West and the East.

The Fifteenth Day of the Chinese New Year--Lantern Festival
Happy Lantern Festival, everyone!
On the fifteenth day of the Chinese New Year, or Lantern Festival, children are supposed to be walking on the street carrying a lantern. However, it is raining at this moment, and looking out, I don't see a soul, much less a lantern. Were it not for the festive sound of fireworks in the distance, I might take today as an ordinary day.
