Read it. Feel it. Put your feet into the shoe of children who suffer from this.

The notion of a "tiger parent" is analogous to other authoritarian parenting stereotypes, such as the American stage mother, the Japanese kyōiku mama, and the Jewish mother.

I like how there are a handful of different regionally-specific terms, and then there’s just ‘Jewish Mother’.

Can I ask that you don't take children's shoes?

It's not supportive of their developmental needs

Hey man, you obviously give them back. Stand in my shoes for a moment. Freaking moron. Now, give them back. Back to your own shoes. Shoo.
