Whether you’re a “Tiger Mom or Dad,” (and I agree with flu, those terms can apply to people of all races and cultures) or any other type of parent, in the end, the proof of success will lie in whether your kids achieve their goals in life or not.
As someone with grown children, I’m seeing it from the “other side of the equation,” and, in at least 50% of the families of our kids peers (many raised in RSF, CV, DM, etc., etc.) it’s not a pretty picture.
Many parents we talk to about their grown kids have found that even though they crossed every “t” and dotted every “i,” there were still elements (attitude, personality, competition, etc., etc.) in the real world that were out of their control.
You can micromanage your kids, but you can’t micromanage the world they live in, so all you can do is the very best you can, and hope it all works out for them.
