<p>i agree 100% with the dude above me ^^</p>
<p>i think what drives a lot of Chinese parents to force their kids to do well is the scary prospect of losing face.</p>
<p>from my own experiences, Chinese parents compare their kids to other Chinese kids way more than white parents do. it’s all about pride. if your kid goes to harvard, your family can be proud. if you kid goes to community college, that’s shame.</p>
