High Expectations Asian aka Tiger Mom

The High Expectations Asian series continues with Tiger Mom, also known as Amy Chua who is know for her book "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother" and her article "Why Asian mothers are superior". This meme is very familiar to High Expectations Asian Dad which I discuss earlier it has a image of Amy Chua and people insert witty lines mostly related to strict Asian parents. This meme has more of a background to it because of Amy's popularity with the media around January 20th, 2011 according to Google Insight . Her article "Why Asian mothers are superior" speaks about her life with her children, her ruthless way of parenting in order to get the most out of her children, she expects nothing less than perfect, with her" I tried" isn't enough. The humor this meme brings comes from the  common stereotype that all Asian parents are strict.



Tiger mom wraps up the High Expectations Asian series were,well the title says its all both parents have High Expectations towards their offspring's. When this meme was released it caused a minor impact with the Asian community since she was so "played out" even Angry Asian Man tweeted about it saying how its old news.

Lastly Do you think Asian parents are strict? Like Ray William Johnson says "Leave a comment on the comment section beloooooow".

  1. traditional and fresh from their own country asian parents may be strict but these days asian parents are slowly adopting a more laid back style of raising their children. Amy Chua, as we have read, was raised in a strict manner in China by her mother and she herself had used that same method on her own children in America believing it to be the best way to raise future generations. Not all asian parents are like that so this stereotype should not apply to the whole asain american community. also you do not expand much on your topic so i have no more to write about. overall good blog.
