BEYOND THE TIGER MOM: EAST-WEST PARENTING FOR THE GLOBAL AGE

Book ID/图书代码: 02911015B84850

English Summary/英文概要: Dispel the hype and myths about Asian parenting and uncover the practical with this effective parenting guide.

How do Asian parents prime their children for success from a young? Why do Asian kids do so well in math and science? What is the difference between an Asian upbringing and a Western one? Why do some Asian mothers see themselves as "tiger moms" while others shun the label? How do Asian parents deal with their children’s failures? Is it sometimes good for children to fail?

These are just a few of the compelling questions posed and answered in this fascinating new parenting book by educator Maya Thiagarajan as she examines the stereotypes and goes beneath the surface to explore what really happens in Asian households. How do Asian parents think about childhood, family and education—and what can Western parents learn from them?

Through interviews with hundreds of Asian parents and kids, Thiagarajan offers a detailed look at their values, hopes, fears and parenting styles. Woven into this narrative are her own reflections on teaching and parenting in Asia and the West. Thiagarajan synthesizes an extensive body of research to provide accessible and practical guidelines for parents. Each chapter ends with a "How To" section of specific tips for Asian and Western parents to aid their child’s educational development both inside and outside the classroom.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这部有效的育儿指南将揭开亚洲育儿的宣传噱头和各种传说,并提供各种使用的方法。

亚洲父母是如何帮助孩子从小为成功做好准备的?为什么亚洲的孩子在数学和科学方面表现突出?亚洲和西方育儿的区别在哪里?为什么有些亚洲母亲认为自己的虎妈,而另一些则拒绝这一标签?亚洲父母如何应对自己孩子的失败?有时候,失败是否对孩子有好处呢?

上述只是本书涉及的部分令人感兴趣的话题。教育家Maya Thiagarajan在本书中揭示了亚洲家庭的真实情况,并回答了这个问题——亚洲父母是如何看待童年、家庭和教育的?西方父母可以从中学到什么?

通过数百个亚洲父母和孩子的访谈,作者细致深入地研究了他们的价值观、希望、恐惧和育儿风格,并在叙述的同时提出了自己对亚洲和西方育儿和教育的思考,她将广泛的研究通过通俗易懂的方式传达给父母们。每一章的结尾都有一个“如何做”的部分,给亚洲和西方父母帮助孩子在课堂内外的教育发展提供了切实可行的建议。(LYR)
