kristianawithak 's review for:
Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother
by Amy Chua
I had heard the uproar about this book when it came out and wouldn't have wanted to read it unless someone told me it was valuable. I really enjoyed it. It took awhile to not feel like Amy Chua was personally judging me as a parent, but that's just normal parent insecurity. I think all parents assume other parents are judging their choices. Once I got past that I was able to really enjoy the book. Chua isn't judging other parents, she's judging herself, and it's nice to hear how other people parent. No parent has it all together, and you're bound to make mistakes.
I became surprisingly engaged over whether Lulu would quit violin. The afterward was a nice touch and was so lighthearted, it was a fantastic change of pace. I would recommend it, don't take it or yourself too seriously and it's wonderful.
