[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 400670, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]I have to say there are some interesting things being said in this article. What struck me most was the comment that a Chinese mother "assumes strength, not fragility & as a result they behave very differently". There were other comments made that made me stop & think. I've treated kt & wm as the poor little orphan children rather than assuming strength ~ encouraging them to survive. My twins are strong & are survivors yet I've allowed them to "wallow" in their misery rather than pushing them forward. I might not have taken the same tack as this mother but I buckled under various & sundry comments by tdocs. Was this right or wrong? I pause & wonder now? [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
