Guest[quote=lifeisgood]I’m not comparing Phillipine mothers to Chinese mothers on how they raise kids. I am speaking about culture and traditions, in regards to parenting, changing the longer an immigrants from any country lives in the United States. A Chinese family that moves to the U.S. for work puposes and oppurtunity for their children will slowly start to see their children pick up on American culture. Their children will probalbly raise their kids differently than their parents raised them. So on and so on until the old customs, traditions, and culture are completely removed one generation at a time.[/quote]
I think that you’re correct.
If you look at European immigrants of the past, they were very much like Chinese mothers of today.
Eastern European immigrants still make their kids play the violin and piano.
Condi Rice and Madeleine Albright’s parents were very much “Chinese” parents, IMO.

Participant[quote=briansd1]My experience with Asians is that Filipinos mothers would not be considered “Chineses mothers” by the author of the WSJ article.
Filipinos are happy go lucky people who let their hair down. They have been influenced by the Spanish and Americans and they lack Confucian culture.
The economy in the Philipines is dominated by ethnic Chinese businessmen and crony businesses with connections to the government.
BTW, the Philippines is the country in Asia that copied the American democratic system almost exactly.
The PIs was the most advanced Asian country before and after WWII (because it was an American colony). Now, it’s the most stagnant country and they are having to export their people because there aren’t enough jobs.
That said, I know a Filipina gal who was an advertising executive handling big multinational accounts in Manila. She’s a single mom and sacrificed her carreer to move to America and become a medical assistant. All so that her two daughters could attend university in America. Both daughters are excellent students and got full scholarships.
She’s very well-educated and savvy. Her mothering style is very lovey though. She’s a close friend and confidente to her daughters. Very different from the Chinese mothering model.[/quote]
Again…
Shenigans!
My wife was sequestered until she left home on her first job.
Her parents were “Chinese Mothers” but very loving. She does not resent them but sometimes I do because we cannot do things together because “she was not allowed to do that” and consequently is something that I could have done with a “whiter” wife.
And I am talking about normal things…
Many pinoys are exacty like thier asian counterparts in terms of this. Infact MORE so. Pinoys focus thier childern on pratical things. Careers in Nursing, engineering, and things, like FLU said, that can make money. Creativity is not stimied but I am not sure it is encouraged either. If it is not pratical then it is not something that should be pursued with conviction.
Of course this is not all households but I find more cultural sharing with the asian than they do with the latinos or whites.
I know. I live it everyday.

CoronitaParticipant[quote=cjdairym]Flu, that’s hilarious. Definitely seen that before.
Which branches to this website.
http://www.asian-central.com/stuffasianpeoplelike/stuff-asian-people-like-full-list/%5B/quote%5DI haven’t even spoken about “ghetto-asians”…
If any of you folks are a getto-asian, please stop…You’re embarrassing the rest of us…And if you’re a parent of ghetto-asian, please slap some sense into your kid and stop giving him/her money to do stupid crap like this..
Damn riceboys…
Rice-Boy is a stereotype. The typical Rice-Boy can be identified by his car, or rather what he does to it. Generally, Rice-Boy will start out with a car that was not meant to go fast (typically a Honda Civic), and attempt to “fix it up,” usually consisting of aftermarket rims, lowering springs and an aftermarket exhaust system with a large exhaust tip.
Most Rice-Boy cars (or “Rice Rockets”) have the usual complement of stickers proudly displaying features that the car might or might not have, most notably, the Honda VTEC sticker from the later model Preludes, and the plaques from the later model Integras.
Rice-Boys do not exclusively drive Japanese cars. There are quite a few fake Mustang ‘5.0’s and Camaro Z28’s out there, as well as quite a few strange looking Neons.
