caronee 's review for:
Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother
by Amy Chua
Lots of people have been saying stuff about this book. I can't bear to comment further on what is the best type of parenting, just as long as your child isn't a jerk, I actually think you would be pretty successful.
Either way, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is NOT a step by step instruction booklet on how to raise your child. It just happens that her children were extremely successful, if you determine success by them going to Ivy Leagues, but I would most want to attest that fact because Amy Chua is a Yale professor, her husband is also a professor at Yale. Dude. Even if Amy Chua treated her children like any other normal, affluent, upper class family, her children would have turned out the same.
They had access to so many resources, as well as being extremely educated. I don't want to say that her children's successes were mostly dependent on Mrs. Chua's connections, but I sort of can't help but assume that most rich people's kids are gonna end up rich themselves.
Take the book as you want. My main message I got from it was if you really want your children to be successful, you should learn to be successful yourself.
Other than that, FAST, BREEZY read.
