<p>hotspur, you may find this thread from last year on Amy Chua’s book entertaining: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1064027-battle-hymn-tiger-mother-new-book-about-chinese-parenting.html?highlight=tiger[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1064027-battle-hymn-tiger-mother-new-book-about-chinese-parenting.html?highlight=tiger&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Not a fan of “Battle Hymn,” nor of Michele Hernandez either. I read their books after my kids had already made their college decisions, and realized that I wouldn’t have found their information of great value to our family.</p>

<p>I read the Neurotic Parent’s Guide and found it quite funny. I think the author was a bit too snarky about CC posters, though, given that she references CC fairly often and obviously obtained some great source material here.</p>

<p>Here is the problems with those books- they all contain last years info. Cc is current, and now info.</p>

<p>Thanks Fraz, </p>

<p>I’ll check it out :)</p>
