SUMMARY |
Summary |
The author chronicles her decision to raise her daughters, Sophia and Lulu, in a way that reflects the Chinese way of childrearing, which puts an emphasis on preparing them for the future, by demanding that her children perform at the top of their classes in all subjects besides drama and physical education, play the piano or violin, and spend their time studying and practicing rather than playing with other kids. |
