I am a Chinese American and grew up with very traditional parents. My mom always said that I know when to love you and when to make you fear me. If all I give you is love and no pain, you will never appreciate the love I give you. From her perspective, a lot of American parents do a great job of giving unconditional love, but there's no consequences for doing bad in school or behavior wise, hence, kids never mature and understand how to appreciate love. This is a very general statement by her so definitely not the case for everyone. And not all Asian parents do a good job of parenting either.

My friend came from Vietnam when we were in the fourth grade. She didn’t speak a word of English and sat in the back of the class listening to cassette tapes learning English. She graduated number one in our class and went to a great school and got a degree in chemical engineering. I was very proud of her! Even though I graduated number thirty-one in our class (of 340) I haven’t achieved anything in my life. (I wanted to be a professional musician) There are absolutely NO EXCUSES for anyone in the United States of America not to achieve their dreams if they want it bad enough! There is always a way…

I am an active public school teacher now in my 26th year. I have had the pleasure to teach white, Afican American, Hispanic, and Asian students throughout my career. By far, Asian students have been the most disciplined, respectful, and studious group. I have taught over nine different courses and have always kept hard copies of exemplary student work to show the next crop of students. The majority of the "saved" work is from Asian students. I rarely speak with Asian parents at Parent -Teacher conferences, because there is no need for concern. Their sons and daughters repeatedly perform at the highest academic levels.

I think it has nothing to do with genetics and everything to do with the influence of Confucianism which places a very strong emphasis on education and subjugation of the individual to the group -- in this case, pressure to confirm to the educational goals and aspirations of the family. In contrast, in broad American society, there seems to be heavy emphasis on sports, oftentimes at the detriment of more cognitively focused disciplines of education.

I am American, my wife is Chinese. I witness with my own two eyes exactly why they’re more successful on average. Every day my wife puts the kids through a rigorous boot camp of math, language, piano, science, etc. My wife literally has no time for herself. I never experienced that academic rigor when I was a kid. Sometimes there’s a little battling between my wife and I due to the western mentality of “needing to be a kid” that I bring to the table. In the end, however, the kids get a good balance and it’s become obvious to me that the cultural importance on education is unspeakably higher in the far east. My wife’s parents are always checking on their grades. My parents always buy them ice cream 😊😂

That’s not really the answer. There are many Asian Americans who work manual labor jobs. It’s more about kids growing up and seeing how hard their parents work and make sacrifices for the kids. Sure the parents want the kids to study but not all do. Yes some are strict but not all. Peer pressure plays a part. One factor that is rarely brought up is that most Asian Americans don’t focus on athletics. Yes they participate but come on. The chances of making it as a pro anywhere and make good money is not very high. Black males can be considered blessed or cursed. Some realize their own athletic limitations but some come close but don’t reach it. Focus is not on academics always or it’s really challenging for any student athlete to balance both. Some or many do an amazing job. Yes some struggle. Yes some blow it.

In the Far East, a battery of homework and Straight As minimum standard is applied heavily. Because education is seen by far, more than a financial investment, it is a wealth builder, accumulator, and a progressive community attitude to developing a survival belt of attainment. Dullards and comedians, lazy kids find a niche somewhere in Asian society, but ultimately they are expected to work equally as hard. Whilst there are exceptions, the wealth gained from achievement is reinvested back into the community of businesses and families. Hence a ferocious attitude to like minded marriages. Mixed marriages are somewhat uncommon but I suppose there is a reason, and creating wealth is but one amongst many, hazarding a guess.

I am an Asian. I studied and worked hard because my parents (immigrants) had set a good example for me. They made huge sacrifices (engineer and nurses became technician and seamstress) by coming here so that their children may have a better life. They took low/lower paying jobs and yet never asked for welfare. They endured language barrier, cultural shock and sometimes racial discrimination. I am proud of my parents. I love the song Colors of the Wind: “You think the only people who are people, Are the people who look and think like you, But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger, You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew…..”

As a child whose father passed when I was 6, I hate how society is forgetting the importance of a nuclear family unit. My mother was twice the parent anyone could ever be and raised me and my sister well, but there are so many things I feel like I’m learning late because I didn’t have a father growing up. Family stability is a *major* contributor to how well adjusted a kid is growing up. Doesn’t matter how amazing the single parent is, you can’t do two parents’ jobs as one person. Granted, western culture has become very selfish and irresponsible. That include in the realm of starting a family or having kids. I saw my mother shoulder the incredible burden of raising me and my sister right, even if it meant hard work, sacrifice and pain. That’s what motivates me to work hard myself, to show my appreciation for everything she’s done for me at the expense of herself. I don’t really see that kind of sacrifice and commitment from western societies. It’s always about “me me me me”. And to have a nuclear family unit you need to make sacrifices.

One particular friend, Ken, his parents were hard workers. He didn't care too much for the other black kids who were not going anywhere in life. Ironically he hung out with us, played games with us, and at times, asked for us to help him with his school work. My friends and I, of course, did what we could to help him.

I'm Asian, moved here legally in the 90s. My husband and I raised our kids to be respectful and productive members of society. Ours kids all excelled in academics. We tell them everyday to do their best in whatever they do. If their best is a B or C, we told them that's ok too. But they always strive for A and get it most of the time. School was priority. We did not have computer games to distract them. We taught them to manage their time so there's room for school, sports, friends, etc. We provide the resources so the kids are successful. It is the kids' job to ask us for help if they need it. And very important, we eat dinner together, as a family, every night.

The former would complain, use welfare as a crutch, play around, and never really do much in life. The latter would grow up, create business, and lap the US-born. Living in this country, you can get spoiled and used to the opportunity. Those born abroad know what they have and cherish it.

They had to read books and write an essay to get paid. Every Sunday morning was a pay day. With the money they made, they bought things they wanted. Computers, game consoles, bikes, shoes, toys and everything. I did not tell them to go take after school programs, but they told me they wanted to to better themselves. Costly but I did pay for that for 2 years. They excelled in school and I never worried about them. Both of them are in college now, and have a bright future.

When I was in college back in 1991, I had to write a last-minute article for the local newspaper on a Saturday night. Because my dorm was partying down I went to our 24-hour library to write in peace. I walked in after midnight to a packed library. There was nowhere to sit. And every single one of the students there were Asian.

Yet being an athlete, musician, or actor also requires a lot of hard work.

Being a doctor/lawyer/engineer is in reality a lot easier to do, and there's more stability. That's how my Asian parents explained it to me - no disciplining needed. Your parents must be terrible if they discipline you for asking questions.

My parents said back then when Asian countries were poor, businessmen were the only ones who were rich. Musicians, actors, and athletes didn’t make money that much, didn’t matter how famous they were. Also after some time of being famous, their fame died down and they were constantly replaced by newcomers, so they stopped making money as much. Doctors, lawyers, and engineers made good enough money and their careers were stable; you can have those careers for the rest of your life. But now that Asian countries are growing economically, those in the creative and sports field are doing exceptionally well, even better than doctors. However, those industries are still unstable, you either make it or not. So Asian parents often discourage their children to be musicians/actors/athletes
@s._3560
@s._3560 Жыл бұрын
Asian parents advise against these because those fields have less job stability. There are many people who don't become famous, and they end up with low to no income. Because the arts field is somewhat subjective e.g. actor. Moreover, professional fields like scientists, lawyers, doctors etc. have erected many barriers to entry to protect their profession, to ensure that they all have good pay, less competition and more jobs. As the other previous guy says, a more developed and rich economy helps support those jobs in the entertainment, arts field because people have more disposable income. Asian parents mean well when they advise their children to choose the more tried and tested way. They also want their kids to aim high so Asian kids can reach higher than they've dreamed!

She had several children, worked hard and made sure her kids all went to college, most through scholarships. My dad was able to go to college in the USA through an exchange program, he became a lawyer. He worked so hard he got constipation and impacted bowel from working all day and night without using the CR. He and my mother worked so that me and my siblings could have a better life, just like grandma worked and saved for her kids. I can only pray I can do the same for my future kids. Every time someone tries to make me feel guilty for being "well off" it always annoys me, my family didn't just wake up rich or rob other people for money, they all worked hard so that their kids could reap the benefits. People these days only think about themselves, what they want, what they need - which is why most people in my area stay poor, as soon as they get a paycheck they spend it all on things THEY WANT instead of investing in future generations...

What school and state did you teach at? I'm Mexican and Im studying for civil engineering major , however, I do believe that affirmative action isn't beneficial since it puts a burden on Asian students especially. Ironically though, the same people complaining about Blacks and Hispanics being underrepesented at ivy League colleges also oppose improving the quality of education that they receive prior to post-secondary education. Teachers Unions, for example, are part of the problem since they do nothing to improve the elementary, middle and high schools of black/hispanic children, and they simultaneously oppose charter schools since most charter school teachers are not unionised and because they know that minority children succeed disproportionately in charter schools. Take a look at Success Academy Charter Schools in New York for instance. Sowell talks about it in his book "Discrimination and Disparities" that black and hispanic children who attended SA have OUTPERFORMED white and asian children who attended the conventional public schools , despite the fact that a lot of those white and asian school children came from middle-upper class families, according to 14000 students surveyed there. Take a look at Garfield High School for example. 25% of ALL Mexican American students passing the Ap calculus exam came from Garfield HS because of Jaime Escalante, who I consider to be one of my heroes at the time of his success. . He received a Presidential Medal of Honor from President Ronald Reagan subsequently , but was unfortunately ousted out of Garfield by the Teachers Unions in California who hated him for opposing bilingual education. At the final analysis , if these garbage politicians/teachers unions really cared about improving my peoples education, we would start the process at our K12 schools FIRST. This whole :Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) garbage wouldn't be necessary in Universities if they'd follow this guideline.

However, being married to a westerner, I do see many differences between us, especially parenting. While I thought we share similar money and family concepts with my husband, our parenting styles are very different. My husband doesn’t push the kids to do better while I push them to reach potential, learn different skills and gain experiences. He let them do whatever they like but I have rules and custom (eg set limit on computer usage or screening for web surfing materials for our teens). He wants to befriend with them but I parent, teach and discipline. He has very low expectations for the kids while I have high standards. He thinks kids are born that way (we can’t do anything about them) but I believe in teaching good habits from the young and molding them along the way.

I'm from Singapore and the entrance university requirement is so difficult that I couldn't get in despite having a good diploma. My family was poor, so after my military consciption, I worked full-time at 40hrs a week and put myself to part-time study at night schools 3 times a week for my advance diploma, degree and master in IT. All these programs are self-funded. After I migrated to Australia, I managed to enroll into the part-time doctorate program and put in another 7 years of part-time study before I graduate at the age of 55. I did this while working full-time and support my family. To me, education is a privilege and that is something that always eluded me when I was back in Singapore. I learnt to cherished my opportunity and will never let it slip through my fingers.

Great discussion of bureaucrats setting people up to fail. I knew an Asian with top scores, sending out college applications… but NOT to elite colleges….why?…. he said he would rather be a guaranteed top dog in one loop down (other great schools) than fighting for top dog status with other top dogs. It’s not just getting good grades.. it’s other opportunities at the universities… like research with professors, etc. Also, a math class is a math class, colleges use basically the same books for undergraduate classes. There is no reason to go to a Harvard or Yale for an undergraduate degree. It’s just for looks, like carrying a Louis Vuitton handbag…. And ditto for a masters or Ph.D. There are wonderful professors at many schools. The Elite schools are for networking. I lost contact with that really smart Asian guy… but I am quite sure he is flying around somewhere with the other top dogs.🐶

I went to Caltech. They do not use the same text books for undergraduate classes. My Math 1 (Calculus) text was written by the Ma professor himself. Still, text books aside, it is the homework and exams that set these schools apart, not even the teaching. Math 1 finished 1 year of HS calculus in a few weeks. Each math homework problem would take me an entire afternoon to solve. Overtime, these assignments pushed and unleashed my problem-solving and analytical potentials to several times what I thought I could do. No, it is not like LV bags or just about networking. The students had to work 10x as hard or they may flunk out.

It would depend on your field of study. Some courses are better at MIT then other colleges and also their electives and first years courses also are better (for technology as they don't make you take the BS classes other colleges makes you take, as in more emphasis on tech). This is not to discredit other great colleges like Georgia Tech as they also have a great aerospace program but certain schools have better programs (for real courses like STEM). Now Yale and Harvard are great for lawyers as you get connections (like congressmen and presidents) however their programs are definitely just that (though they a great astrophysics program). This is just based on my family's anecdotes though and we are immigrants so the college gen is mine and we are in the late 20's age now (besides the lawyer as that is just based on the astrophysics cousin's view). Yes all my parents generation children are together and we are Asian.

After school the Asian kids disappear while all the other kids play (roughly and LOUDLY) in the street. Who do you think is getting the homework done and the good grades that go along with it?

I moved to the US in 3rd grade from Seoul, Korea. I had to memorize multiplication table in 2nd grade in a class of 60 kids. Teacher made us recite the 2's and told us to memorize it the next day. 3's the next day. 4's, 5's. When we got to 6's about 30% of the class didn't or couldn't memorize it in one night. The one who weren't able to memorize had the come to front of class and got wacked on the palms. Same next day. For the 7's about 70% of the class weren't able to memorize in one night. Teacher was po'ed. She made all the kids who didn't memorize to the front including me. I was standing on the right side. From the left she took 2 kids and smashed their heads together and was coming down the line 2 heads at a time. To this day the wait was one of the most terrifying moments in my life. In maybe 2 weeks the entire class knew the multiplication table inside and out by sheer rote memorization and discipline enforced by controlled violence. There were no dumb kids or slow kids in that class. EVERYONE memorized it even through the hits. By the time I moved to the US I was at least 3 to 4 years ahead of my peers. I remember teacher giving out a math worksheet in class that I finished in about 3 minutes. The class took 30 minutes to finish with much agony and distress. I literally thought white people were mentally slower than Koreans back then. The advantage never left me. I finished hs math in sophomore year. Took nonAP calculus in junior year and didn't take math senior year. Feel like somewhere in the middle between the American and US system is the sweet spot. If you visit Korea, there's just a dearth of poverty stricken slacker culture. Even the gas pumpers, toll gate workers, 7/11 part timers, bathroom janitors are all just competent and take their jobs seriously. Efficiency and competence is just everywhere. Everyone is also fit and takes care of their fitness and looks. The downside is the pressure and stress produces the highest suicide rate in the world. Again somewhere in middle seems to be the answer.

Yes, I work in South Korea. There are many issues coming to the forefront of society that influence academic pressure. Academic reputation is huge and the pressure to get into the best schools is high. Young adult suicide is high. Middle-class and above kids study most of the day. This means little kids sitting in chairs, with short breaks and no time to run around or be outside Monday through Friday. Sometimes Saturday as well. The idea often is that if you just keep throwing knowledge at them they'll absorb it. True to a degree but many of the kids are exhausted and need a mental break they just aren't getting. A lot of them hit an academic wall or are placed in inappriately leveled classes and just have to slog through the processes day in and day out not really imrpoving at one point. Many of the younger kids are placed in these after school study programs because the parents are both working full time jobs and the after school academy is their child care. The economy in SK has slowed a lot. Getting good paying jobs is getting more competitive and harder than ever, just like the US. This means more academic pressure from the parents that can afford extra classes. Poorer families have been left behind. Many families are also realizing their kid just doesn't have it in them or that the rat race is getting so intense their child's misery isn't worth it and are scaling back on the pressure to study. The korean adults I have talked to around my age confess they do not really have friends. They do not really have hobbies. Many are depressed. Many are in their late twenties and early thirties having never lived outside their parent's home. Unlike America, there is no pressure to move out until one gets married because rent prices are astronomical, but the result is a lot of adults with few independent life experiences. I've heard many anecdotes about the married lives of families too and there is a slang word for what ends up happening in most of them: 졸혼. It means to graduate from marriage. Sure divorce rates are still lower than America, but most marriages become open at one point or totally defunct in terms of romance and connection between mom and dad. Lots of dads who only come home from their out of town job on the weekends. So while these family units are intact, there is a lot of toxicity too. Credit card debt is just as much an issue here as in the US. Many people buy flashy things they can't afford as pressure to appear materially successful is huge. At the end of the day, I don't think Asia, or SK at least, is all that different from the West. For all the talk of discipline, family values and academic focus, they're headed to the same places we are. A society forced to ask themselves, "What is the point of life? Happiness or working in misery to own a bunch of stuff? At what point is the system we're living under to blame for growing poverty and dissatisfaction rather than individuals."

The devaluation of fathers in the black community, far more than any of the historical atrocities committed against them, is the impetus behind why they underperform in so many areas of success. After all, its not like other racial groups are free of historical oppression, ethnic cleansing, political disenfranchisement or war. Yet these impediments never hampered their progress,, once opportunities were abundant. So to rationalize the failure of black communities to thrive based on the sins of the past is a facile and ultimately wrong answer. All it does is imbue Blacks with a mentality that ensures that they will be mired in the same condition they are in. Stop infantilizing them. They must do the hard work of demanding that the men in their community start to act like men.

I'm Asian. I did well in school and college because I didn't want the sacrifices my parents made to go to waste. I also wanted to have a safe and secure future. The problem with the west is they like to dream too big. They live in a fantasy thinking things will eventually work out. We need money to eat and clothes to wear. As such we need to have an education that gives us an opportunity to get a well paying job. Granted many r unemployed today but I'd rather chance that than take a huge risk to try to become a singer or painter or poet or something. Very few ppl succeeded and it's also not a guarantee to last. Asians always teach our kids to be realistic. My parents didn't force me to be a topper. They only expected me to do well. I got 90% in my board exams and distinction in college. My future is set. In India your education is also a factor for marriage. If you are less educated, wealthy and well educated families won't pick you as bride or groom. Also filiel piety is very important. We take care of our aging parents when we become adults.

I grew up in Hawaii and during High School, I took an Asian studies class that taught language (Chinese and Japanese) but also Confucian philosophy. Filial piety is the primary tenant which teaches respect, responsibility and bringing honor to the family. This belief struck a chord at a young age and has been my guiding principle throughout my life (am semi-ret). During grad school (I have multiple grad degrees) the Asian students (foreign and domestic) were in general not the most talented, but worked extremely hard and in general got the highest marks. In my humble opinion, it's up to each individual to set goals and work toward achieving them, regardless of their circumstances.

I am an Asian American. We should focus on individual and personal passion/achievement instead of race, national origins which can be inaccurate and counterproductive & discriminatory. Surely we all regardless can learn and apply some practical good techniques from each other. Good or bad depending on individual kharma, not race or anything specific.

While I agree for sure individualism most important overall, your comment generalizing Asian students as not most talented appears to be totally unsubstantiated when admitting that group got highest grades. A tinge of jealousy perhaps? So based on your logic if one studied hard and do well, it is because that student studied hard not because underlying talent? how did you come up with that conclusion that someone scoring lower is actually more talented? Point is you can't make that generalization period without hard evidence.

I am a teacher in an East Asian country and there’s another factor that reinforces this trend, although I don’t believe it discounts the impact of family or affirmative action. East Asian cultures put a far stronger emphasis on academic achievement as an indicator of success and social status than Western countries, and children are conditioned to study hard from a very young age. Their societies are also far more conformist, so children who are of average intelligence or who are not academically inclined are still expected to dedicate most of their time outside of school to study. It’s no surprise then that Asian American children whose parents instil this value set would out-perform their peers academically.

I am from Hong Kong, while it is true that the "high pressure" is creating successful students, but it also came with a cost. we have a very high rate of suicide among students, there are many cases that some of them couldn't handle the pressure and ended their lives. just yesterday I read on the news a boy committed suicide because he felt he failed. not to mention this mentality carry over toward their adulthood, a lot of adult committed suicide because they felt that they "fail" to achieve something in their lives, ultimately believing that they can not restart and they took the short way out. Meanwhile, I noticed that children from Western countries are less stressful and have a more open mind.

dunno why comments like these are not shown more. There is a balance in life. I feel like in America they only focus on the success of so called “Asian” students, and not the side effects. These students do not always grown up to be what we expect. Academic success does not make you achieve beyond what you are told. And many of these students do not meet the high standards, in which they are seen as failures not only from their parents, but OUTSIDE of the culture. You probably heard BS statements like “you fail at xxx despite being asian haha.” This is some dumb shit statement because Asians are human beings too. They are not some sort of robots bent on success.

As a Chinese New Zealander, I think the focus on academic achievement and putting the interests of the family at the forefront have been the reasons for success in some Asian cultures. Cultures that avoid dwelling on victim hood and value education and entrepreneurship tend to succeed.

Look at athletics whether high school or college, no Asians. Look at all other extra curricular activities, pretty much no Asians. Go to places where high school kids or college students work, again basically no Asians. An Asian kid’s only task is to study and succeed academically. However, they also can be under immense stress and pressure to succeed which isn’t a good thing either.

It goes to show that high values are made through the cohesiveness of a family and is better suited for helping the next generation succeed. Spoiling and making indulge into their selfish desires without consequences is what structurally deteriorates the family relationship as a whole and leaves it up the children who grow up in that environment to succeed through their own means of upbringing
