"blame the parents that don't push their kids"

we took one of our son's to a public school to get a speech thing he had evaluated. He around two or so.

So this union teacher comes running into the room my wife and I were waiting and she says 'you know your son knows the whole alphabet and he knows this and that, you are pushing him to hard and I'm reporting you to child social services"

Then she gets the principle and some other union teachers that started yelling at us because we are pushing to hard'

Like I said it's the lets all feel good and give me a raise teachers union that is the problem.

Oh by the way that's the last time any of my kids stepped foot in a public school

Pub, > blame the parents that don't push their kids....kids need to get their parents involved in their studies.....too many distractions in US compared to asia.

Tons of distractions in Asia as well.

The difference is culture. Here, "Tiger Mom" raises eyebrows. In Asia, "Tiger Mom" is normal.
