Podcast appearances and mentions of Amy Chua

A presidential candidate is assassinated at San Francisco's swanky Claremont Hotel in 1944. Homicide detective Al Sullivan was having a drink in the bar downstairs. This begins the historical thriller “The Golden Gate” by Amy Chua. Hear a review of this best-selling author's debut novel.

Fourteen years ago, Amy Chua published Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother. It was received less like a book and more like a nuclear bomb. Here are some headlines from the time: “Why I Will Never Be a Tiger Mom.” “Why Amy Chua Is Wrong About Parenting.” “Amy Chua Is a Circus Trainer, Not a Tiger Mother.” “The Human Race Needs Elephant Mothers, Not Tiger Mothers.” “Amy Chua's Recipe for Disaster and the Externalized Cost of Book Sales.” Then, just as the publicity around Tiger Mother died down, Amy came out with The Triple Package, about why some ethnic groups succeed. People called her racist. Then she came out in support of Brett Kavanaugh's court nomination in an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal (before he was accused of sexual assault by Christine Blasey Ford). Afterward, people accused her of misogyny and grooming. And she was almost forced out of Yale for it.  Then, in 2021, she was accused of hosting boozy dinner parties during COVID lockdowns and “dinner party-gate” was born. Yale punished her by barring her from teaching her “small group” first-year student contingency.  Fast-forward to 2025. And the tables have turned. Being a strict “tiger mom”? In. Free speech? In. Wokeness and hypersensitivity? Out. Covid lockdowns? Definitely out. Vicious character assassinations at Senate confirmations? Out. As Free Press reporter Peter Savodnik just wrote: “The ideas that Chua was pilloried for are suddenly back in fashion.”  Just a few weeks ago, she attended the inauguration of the incoming president and vice president—one of whom happens to be her former student and mentee.  It's easy to be a weather vane—to go where the wind blows. It's hard to be Amy Chua—to stand up for your beliefs even when they are not popular, even when it means personal consequences. On today's episode, live in D.C. during inauguration weekend, Chua explains how and why she won—and what it feels like to be vindicated.  If you liked what you heard from Honestly, the best way to support us is to go to TheFP.com and become a Free Press subscriber today.

In our previous episode we introduced Rich Hanson, Drew Westen and Amy Chua, experts in political anxiety and we'll call on them again in this episode. We'll examine what they have to say about emotional recovery to help us after this presidential election.   Topics Covered: Post-Election Emotional Recovery Mindfulness and Self-Compassion: "taking in the good" focus Understanding Emotional Aftershocks Overcoming Tribalistic Divides Practical Self-Care Tips Reflection on National Resilience   Here are 3 takeaways from our episode:   1.   Drawing on Rick Hanson's guidance, we can use mindfulness practices like "taking in the good" to counter negative emotions and cultivate resilience. Emphasizing moments of positivity can help us stay grounded and manage post-election stress.   2.   Drew Westen highlights that election-induced emotions don't simply fade but can linger as "emotional aftershocks." These residual feelings of anger, fear, or disappointment may affect relationships and public discourse, so it's important to be aware of these lingering tensions as people process the election's outcome.   3.   According to Amy Chua, overcoming tribal divides involves recognizing diverse identities, fostering empathy, and working on shared community goals. This can be accomplished through local actions and open dialogue, allowing individuals to see each other as allies rather than adversaries, despite differing views.   Mentioned in the Episode:   Chris Davis:   Freedom from Suffering about the Election   Rick Hanson: https://www.amazon.com/   Let Be, Let Go, Let In 15-Minute Guided Meditation   https://www.bu.edu/articles/2024/anxious-about-election/   https://rickhanson.com/dos-and-donts-of-virtuous-conduct/   https://rickhanson.com/topics-for-personal-growth/navigating-political-turmoil/   https://rickhanson.com/how-to-promote-healthy-human-politics/   Amy Chua, Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations https://www.amazon.com/     Drew Weston, The Political Brain: The Role of Emotion in Deciding the Fate of the Nation https://www.amazon.com/     How to reach Yo Canny:    Our Store: www.girltaketheleadpod.com/store    Our Website: www.girltaketheleadpod.com  You can send a message or voicemail there.

In many of our past episodes we've uncovered aspects of emotions that can come up when we're stressed plus this month we're looking into the topic of conflict so today's episode goes into both these areas by looking at the political anxiety many of us may be experiencing around the upcoming Presidential election. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum we seem to all experiencing the same sensation of fear resulting from the polarization we're feeling. We thought it might be helpful to take a deeper look at this by exploring the what and the why when it comes to feeling this way, particularly as election day approaches. We'll call on 3 experts to guide us: Rick Hanson, Amy Chua, and Drew Westen Ph.D. Rick Hanson, Ph.D., is a neuropsychologist and New York Times best-selling author. His books include Hardwiring Happiness, Buddha's Brain, Just One Thing, Resilient: How to Grow an Unshakable Core of Calm, Strength, and Happiness. He'll help us learn more about mindfulness and emotional regulation.   And Amy Chua is author of the Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations. She is a noted expert in the fields of ethnic conflict and globalization and will help us learn about tribalism and identity politics.   Drew Westen, author The Political Brain, The Role of Emotion in Deciding the Fate of the Nation, is a clinical, personality, and political psychologist and neuroscientist. He will help us see how emotions, particularly fear and anger influence politics.   This will be a 2 part series. This is the episode covering the pre-election and the other will be post-election.   Topics Covered: Political Anxiety Defined Rick Hanson's Concept of “Paper Tiger Paranoia” Virtuous Conduct Tribalism and Identity Politics (Amy Chua) Emotions in Politics (Drew Westen) Statistics on the 2024 Election Campaign (Pew Research Center) Mindfulness, Empathy, and Connection   Here are 3 takeaways from our episode:   1.     Political anxiety, driven by high-stakes issues like abortion and climate change, is often intensified by our brain's tendency to overestimate threats, known as "paper tiger paranoia." Mindfulness can help manage these fears by grounding us in reality and reducing the sense of being overwhelmed. 2.     Tribalism, as described by Amy Chua, worsens political anxiety by creating an "us vs. them" mentality. While polarization grows, she remains optimistic that local, community-driven efforts can bridge divides and foster empathy. 3.     Emotions in politics play a major role in voter decision-making, with campaigns often exploiting fear and anger. Drew Westen highlights that positive emotions, like hope and authenticity, can inspire greater political engagement and help alleviate political anxiety.   Mentioned in the Episode:   Rick Hanson: https://www.amazon.com/   Let Be, Let Go, Let In 15-Minute Guided Meditation   https://www.bu.edu/articles/2024/anxious-about-election/   https://rickhanson.com/dos-and-donts-of-virtuous-conduct/   https://rickhanson.com/topics-for-personal-growth/navigating-political-turmoil/   https://rickhanson.com/how-to-promote-healthy-human-politics/   Amy Chua, Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations https://www.amazon.com/   Drew Weston, The Political Brain: The Role of Emotion in Deciding the Fate of the Nation https://www.amazon.com/   https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/10/10/voters-feelings-about-the-2024-campaign-and-election-outcomes-concerns-about-political-violence/   Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry https://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/poem/peace-wild-things-0/ How to reach Yo Canny:    Our Store: www.girltaketheleadpod.com/store    Our Website: www.girltaketheleadpod.com  You can send a message or voicemail there.

From politics to every day life, humans have a tendency to form social groups that are defined in part by how they differ from other groups. Neuroendocrinologist Robert Sapolsky, author Dan Shapiro, and others explore the ways that tribalism functions in society, and discuss how—as social creatures—humans have evolved for bias. But bias is not inherently bad. The key to seeing things differently, according to Beau Lotto, is to "embody the fact" that everything is grounded in assumptions, to identify those assumptions, and then to question them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRANSCRIPT: 0:00 Intro 0:30 Robert Sapolsky on the hardwiring of social creatures and the “runaway trolley problem. 4:53 Alexander Todorov on typicality and how we perceive faces. 6:46 Dan Shapiro on when tribe loyalty supersedes logic. 8:00 Amy Chua on the importance of grouping our identities. 8:47 Dividing into groups is inevitable,says Sapolsky, but how we divide is fluid. 10:44 Beau Lotto and Todorov discuss how our brains evolved for assumptions and the psychological functions of first impressions. Our brain evolved to take what is meaningless to make it meaningful. Everything you do right now is grounded in your assumptions. Not sometimes, but all the time. We are kind of hardwired to figure out the intentions of other people. We turn the world into us's and thems. And we don't like the thems very much and are often really awful to them. That's the challenge of our tribalistic world that we're in right now. ROBERT SAPOLSKY: When you look at some of the most appalling realms of our behavior, much of it has to do with the fact that social organisms are really, really hardwired to make a basic dichotomy about the social world, which is those organisms who count as us's and those who count as thems. And this is virtually universal among humans. And this is virtually universal among all sorts of social primates that have aspects of social structures built around separate social groupings, us's and thems. We turn the world into us's and thems and we don't like the thems very much and are often really awful to them. And the us's, we exaggerate how wonderful and how generous and how affiliative and how just like siblings they are to us. We divide the world into us and them. And one of the greatest ways of seeing just biologically how real this fault line is is there's this hormone oxytocin. Oxytocin is officially the coolest, grooviest hormone on Earth because what everybody knows is it enhances mother infant bonding, and it enhances pair bonding in couples.

Iris Chen joins Annie Friday this week to share more about how choosing to unschool opened her up in surprising and radical ways to begin imagining the world without punitive, oppressive systems. Through her work as a parent educator, coach, and collaborator,  Iris helps others find connection and community as they bring more consciousness into their family life. While Iris' coaching is available to all, she has tailored some of her programming to meet the specific needs of Asian femmes who are working out a unique type of generational healing. These are humans who may have grown up with the stereotypical tiger parenting style first brought to public attention by Amy Chua in her book back in 2011. Iris, along with Yunzhe Zhou, will be presenting a new offering called Untiger Your Self so that others may find strength and connection as they un-tiger their self-knowledge, self-compassion, and self-advocacy in order to re-pattern ways of being in relationship with family.Learn more about Iris Chen and her work as an author, coach, and visionary on Instagram @Untigering or head to her website by the same name where you can find her books and more on her coaching services and workshops.

Robb Moreira portrays police detective Al Sullivan, who tells listeners about a prominent industrialist who is murdered in San Francisco's posh Claremont Hotel in 1944. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Robin Whitten discuss how the Claremont Hotel is essentially a character in this story that features layers of San Francisco history with the intersection of its diverse communities. Moreira's Sullivan is competent, persistent, yet caring, animating characters from low-life thugs, the upper-class Bainbridge women, and even Madame Chaing Kai-shek. Tim Campbell and Suzanne Toren ably narrate court deposition sequences. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile's website. Published by Macmillan Audio.

Sarah Sun (Miss Utah 2023) joins Utah's First Lady, Abby Cox, to talk about her experience growing up as a Chinese-American in Cedar City, UT, Utah’s first monument honoring Chinese railroad workers that’s set to be displayed on the southeast lawn of the state capitol, and how her mother’s desire to be more fluent in English helped inspire Sarah to be passionate about her education. Then we dive into Amy Chua’s book, ‘Political Tribes’, the correlations between various disciplinary parenting styles and how they develop positive habits in children, as well as how Sarah’s parent's support for her passions helped lay the groundwork for her to become Miss Utah. Lastly, Sarah opens up about using her platform as Miss Utah to advocate for better education and programming in prisons, the impact that different cultural evolutions have had on modesty, and why we need more women in leadership.

Episode 194 is bookended by Poetry and Romance. We begin with the poem “Only Love” by James Crews from the poetry collection, THE PATH TO KINDNESS: Poems of Connection and Joy. We end with an Author Spotlight with Sarah MacLean. Sarah is a powerhouse reader, advocate, and writer of romance fiction. Her new release is KNOCKOUT, book three in her Hell's Belles series. We had a great time talking with Sarah about romance cover art, how she got into writing romance, and the un-patriarchal idea that we all deserve love and happy endings. It was both fun and enlightening for us, and we think you'll enjoy our conversation whether or not you are a romance reader. In between, we talk about a bunch of books we're currently reading – THE ART OF LIBROMANCY by Josh Cook, FAMILY LORE by Elizabeth Acevedo, and HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE VAMPIRE by Kerrelyn Sparks – and those we have finished reading like THE DICTIONARY OF LOST WORDS by Pip Williams, THE GOLDEN GATE by Amy Chua, and COUNTRY PLACE by Ann Petry which we both read for the Vintage Book Club. We also recap some Couch Biblio Adventures we've enjoyed such as SLOW HORSES, RENFIELD, and KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON. We hope you are finding some peace, comfort, and stimulation through your reading. Happy Reading! Chris & Emily

More than a decade after she was labeled as “Tiger Mom” for her 2011 memoir “The Battle Hymn of a Tiger Mother,” Amy Chua reflects on her strict parenting style as she traces the roots of her culture to Fuzhou, China. Why did Amy feel right about raising her daughters the same way she was raised by her immigrant parents? What lessons has she learned from her critics in the West? What prompted her to pursue a career in corporate law before teaching law at Yale? And now, what motivated her to write  her first novel “The Golden Gate?” Amy Chua is a Yale law school professor with expertise in international business transactions, ethnicity and conflict, and globalization. She is an author of five non-fiction titles including Political Tribes: Group Instinct and Fate of Nation, and The Triple Package: How Three Unlikely Traits Explain the Rise and Fall of Cultural Groups in America.   Photo Credit: Joel Griffith   Music used: I Will Not Let You Let Me Down by Josh Woodward Your Mothers Daughter by Chris Zabriskie On The Clock by Pictures of the Floating World Tumbling Dishes Like Old-Mans Wishes by Jahzzar One in a Billion Theme Song by Brad McCarthy

In this episode of the Bill Walton Show, my conversation is with Amy Chua,  a provocative and original thinker about culture, world politics, and political tribes. Our main topic is her latest book, The Golden Gate, is a novel set in the San Francisco Bay Area in the 1930s and 1940s.   Best known for her Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, a memoir about her parenting journey using strict Confucianist child rearing techniques, she is a highly accomplished professor at Yale Law School, and has been named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people, The Atlantic's “Brave Thinkers” and Foreign Policy's “Global Thinkers.” The Golden Gate is compelling historical thriller that paints a portrait of a California from another era beset by the crosswinds of a world at war and an American society about to undergo massive changes in how race and class define the essence of power, sex, and justice. It's also filled with fascinating details, like groundbreaking forensic advances, the story of the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge and the presence of China's Madame Chiang Kai-shek in Berkeley in the 1940's Amy brings to this book - and our conversation - her depth of understanding about class structures, culture and ethnic divisions seen in her non-fiction writings.  Her first book, World on Fire: How Exporting Free Market Democracy Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global Instability, explored the ethnic conflict caused in many societies by "market dominant minorities.” In her Day of Empire: How Hyperpowers Rise to Global Dominance - and Why They Fall examined seven major empires and the theory that their success depended on their tolerance of minorities. Political Tribes: Group Instinct and the Fate of Nations, examined how group loyalty often outweighs any other ideological considerations and argues that the failure to recognize the place of group loyalty has played a major role in the failure of US foreign policy. The Triple Package: How Three Unlikely Traits Explain the Rise and Fall of Cultural Groups in America was called by the Financial Times' Lucy Kellaway, “the best universal theory of success I've seen." This is a wide ranging and fun conversation. Highly enjoyable. Listen in.

Check then out on SHOPAssociation.orgIn this episode I talk with Lisa Sun the Founder and CEO of the apparel brand Gravitas and the author of the recently published, runaway best seller titled - “Gravitas: The 8 Strengths That Redefine Confidence.”But first a few thoughts.****************In the spring of 2022, I was in New York for the annual Vision Monday Leadership Summit. This event was being called “Discover & Recalibrate! Trends, Ideas and Tactics for Confronting Radical Change.” This 13th Annual gatherings brought into sharp focus the megatrends shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic.A lot of change has occurred in the world from the spring of 2020 up to this event. The COVID pandemic had shifted our worlds. The uncertainty and ambiguity brought about by the evolving circumstance of a global pandemic was a cause for pause. A time to re-evaluate and find strategies to address new challenges that faced us all.My talk focused on navigating the fluid world of exponential change, facing down the unknown and looking for ways to remain buoyant in the sea of change all around us. I suggested that cultural mindsets had been shifting over the past few years and that they had been hastened in the context of the global pandemic. When brands, their goods, services and experiences, are at odds with evolving culture, they can lose their value even if their legacy stays strong. As cultural transformation happens, brands need to learn how to navigate cultural complexity and create a different future that is aligned with the pace of change. In a post-pandemic, experience-seeking economy, health, safety and welfare are a baseline in the guest expectation set. But addressing evolving customer needs was now well beyond making sure customers were safe while shopping, visiting a hotel or simply being out in the community. How do we keep up with the pace of change? As the pace of change speeds along how can we finding meaning in the in-between of the last and the next big thing? I focused on how can changing your mindset about change allow us to see the ‘now' as an emergent space of creative possibility?Changing your mindset – reframing the context – seeing the interdependency of things – looking for opportunity in upheaval… these all seemed to be front-row-center how we needed to adjust to a new world order.As I was in the speaker's green room waiting for my time slot to come up, in bounds a woman with an air of openness, humility and eagerness to connect. There was an energy of confidence that emanated from her. She seemed to stand her ground, command her conversations and did so while not imposing on you but welcoming you into a shared space of empathic connection. I thought to my self, that I had to make sure that is saw that presentation.When Lisa Sun hit the stage, she was direct and vulnerable. She was hilarious with her impressions of her Taiwanese mother who she says was a Tiger Mom before it became a thing with publishing of Amy Chua's book that popularized the term. She shared her personal journey, living with her immigrant parents in Rancho Cucamonga who ran the only Chinese restaurant withing 40 miles of her home. Her first job out of college was working in a scrap metal yard, then worked for 11 years at McKinsey and Company where she spent on average 250 days a year on the road. She decided to take an 11 month sojourn to travel the world ending her trip with passing through Taiwan where her parents had retired. Her mother tried convinced her to spend half of her life's saving to create her own business rather than going back to the corporate consulting world. A fateful yearly performance review led to an epiphany and that in turn led her to her company Gravitas being born.Today Lisa Sun is the founder and CEO of GRAVITAS, a company on a mission to catalyze confidence. GRAVITAS offers innovative size-inclusive apparel, styling solutions, and content designed to make over women from the inside out.Her first collection was featured inO, The Oprah Magazine, People,and theToday show in the same month.Lisa Sun and GRAVITAS have been featured on CNN and inForbes, Fast Company,New York magazine, Elle, Marie Claire,InStyle, and more. Often called the “dress whisperer,” Lisa is also a highly sought-after public speaker who likes to impart her hard-won knowledge on having gravitas and how to best harness it in other people.10 + years after starting Gravitas the company, “Gravitas: the book, subtitled “The 8 Strengths That Redefine Confidence” has been published. In her book Lisa Sun shares her journey of self-discovery and combines it with proprietary research, real-world examples, and anecdotes from other successful women who have championed their own definition of self-worth.When I think back to the Vision Monday Leadership Summit and it being called “Discover & Recalibrate! Trends, Ideas and Tactics for Confronting Radical Change” I was talking about the radical environmental contextual change all around us and how that would influence change in the way we re-thought the design of our companies, brand experience places and re-writing long-held narratives that were no longer suited to a world of rapid change.I think Lisa's talk was signaling the need for personal radical change. Seeking for a view of oneself that required a mindset shift to believing in a sense of self-empowerment - welcoming change as a vehicle for personal growth. Gravitas, both the apparel company and the book, seek to “catalyze confidence.” ABOUT DAVID KEPRON:LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/david-kepron-9a1582bWebsites: https://www.davidkepron.com    (personal website)vmsd.com/taxonomy/term/8645  (Blog)Email: david.kepron@NXTLVLexperiencedesign.comTwitter: DavidKepronPersonal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidkepron/NXTLVL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nxtlvl_experience_design/Bio:David Kepron is a multifaceted creative professional with a deep curiosity to understand ‘why', ‘what's now' and ‘what's next'.

Thanks!As a new academic year gets underway, many of us are wondering: what law-school scandals lie in store? To discuss current hot-button issues facing legal academia, including free speech, intellectual diversity, and affirmative action, I could think of no better podcast guest than Professor Amy Chua. As a longtime member of the Yale Law School faculty, she's had a front-row seat to—and personal involvement in—several of YLS's recent controversies.  Yale Law insanity aside, there was another reason I wanted to interview Amy, the author of two New York Times bestsellers—most notably, her 2011 memoir, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother (2011). This month, Minotaur Books, Macmillan's mystery- and thriller-focused imprint, is publishing her first novel, The Golden Gate. I devoured it in two days, and I can attest that it's a great read—a historically rich page-turner that will teach you about California history while keeping you on the edge of your seat.One other thing: loyal listeners might notice this episode is going up on Thursday rather than its usual day of Wednesday. There's a good reason for that: my sound engineer Tommy Harron and his wife just welcomed their second child to the world.

This week Master Zi and Vindesh are all fired up over their discussion about how culture shapes and informs us as individuals.  Throughout history so many cultures and civilizations have come and gone, so what can we learn from this?  Zi shares a book, "The Triple Package" by Amy Chua and Jed Rubenfel that explains the 3 traits that have made cultural groups successful in the US after immigration.  We can learn a lot about ourselves by understanding our cultural affiliations.  While it is very advantageous to be a part of a group, sometimes it can be detrimental to our individual health and well being.  This is the first part of this discussion.

"The Triple Package: How Three Unlikely Traits Explain the Rise and Fall of Cultural Groups in America" by Yale Professors Amy Chua "The Tiger Mom" and her husband Jed Rubenfeld. Original air date 6 February 2014. The book was published on 4 February 2014.

The Purple Principle celebrates July 4th with its first episode in a miniseries on America's great independent voices. Amy Chua, known for her bestselling Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, is a Yale law professor and author of Political Tribes. “Every group feels attacked, pitted against other groups not just for jobs and spoils, but for the right to define the nation's identity. In these conditions, democracy devolves into zero-sum group competition. Pure political tribalism.”  In a conversation with TPP host Rob Pease, Chua talks about the challenges of speaking to a fragmented student body. She also discusses the degradation of our shared national identity as marginalized groups increasingly denigrate traditional American ideals. These and related topics explored on this special July 4th episode. Enjoy the show, and don't forget to rate & review us at: ratethispodcast.com/purple How'd you hear about The Purple Principle?

Legal scholar. Lawyer. Professor. Writer. Time Magazine's Most Influential Person. Tiger Mom.There's not much that Amy Chua hasn't done—or can't do. She clerked for the U.S. Court of Appeals, worked on Wall Street, and authored an international bestseller. It wasn't until she published her wildly popular memoir, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, that Amy Chua became a household name. People around the world read about her unique, and often controversial, approach to parenting, i.e. “tiger mothering.”Described as an “ox” by her father, Amy credits her own parents' strict—and sometimes merciless—“tough love” style of parenting for her success. A daughter of immigrants, Amy learned from an early age to persevere against all odds, to eschew victimhood, and to take pride in her identity as an armor against discrimination.But despite her fierce public persona, Amy is a lot like the rest of us: replete with self-doubt and struggle. In this episode of Beyond the Prescription, Amy shares her failures and successes as a parent, a hospitalized patient, and a self-described “work in progress.” A new episode launches every Tuesday. Beyond the Prescription is hosted by Dr. Lucy McBride (https://lucymcbride.com/podcast) and produced by kglobal (https://kglobal.com/podcast-studio).

Hello from Andy’s couch! We take a break from the NBA finals to record Andy’s last ep as co-host : (Per his request, the podsquad talks Amy Chua’s now decade-old book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother—and argues about everything in it. Is the Chinese Tiger Mother actually a thing? Does it matter that Chua is an upper-class second-generation parent? What kind of Asian America does the book describe? Can the satirical bent of the book erase its meanness and cultural essentialism? (Note: we focus pretty narrowly on the memoir and don’t get into her husband’s suspension from Yale for sexual harassment or her own professorial misconduct… but yeah, a lot there.)Then, we send Andy off with thanks and

When Iris Chen saw her own childhood experiences with Tiger parenting repeating with her own children, she knew she needed a complete mental and emotional shift.  Tiger parenting refers to an approach to parenting that is common in immigrant Asian families, specifically Chinese families. It involves very strict and controlled parenting, with high academic expectations. The term was originally started by Yale Law School professor Amy Chua in her 2011 memoir ‘Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother'.   Iris experienced tiger-parenting in her own childhood and realized that she was still dealing with the trauma from it, and inevitably projecting that onto her own children. Iris shares: “I learned how to respect my children, how to share power with them, and treat them with dignity. All of that spilled over into how I saw myself in empowering them in their education, which follows all these peaceful parenting principles of autonomy, consent, and respect. So I felt like unschooling was definitely just a natural result of practicing peaceful parenting with my children.”  This episode explores more of Iris's thoughts on the Un-tigering movement, education, parenting, and unschooling.

It's been almost a decade since Amy Chua wrote the notorious “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother” which caused an uproar in many American parenting circles. A tiger mom refers to a mother who is strict, and demands high levels of both academic excellence from her children as well as obedience. While we may see the Tiger Mom as one style of parenting, Chua points out strictness and obedience are inextricable from the cultural norms of Asian societies ---which view children in a very different way but also in a different role --- than the often more permissive and emotionally supportive Western approach to children . Now Tiger Parenting has become a fixture in the parenting lexicon along with Free Range Parenting, Helicopter Parenting, and the Snow Plow or Lawn Mower Parent which we'll discuss as well. Our special guest today is Mick Kubiak a psychotherapist in private practice who also works as a parent coach.

What are the assumptions used in "tiger" parenting, and what is the goal? This episode is a review of The Battle Hymn of The Tiger Mother by Amy Chua.     

Just the tip... of the non-existent iceberg. Some not so important things about some of the biggest debates in our times. There are some seriously great research links below, also. How data on income inequality and the wealth gap often misses key components to the argument at hand. How data tells a different story depending on how much groups are broken into subgroups. Evidence against the theory of continued white supremacy in the US that is consistently ignored or diminished in its importance. Evidence against oppression being the cause of income inequality, the wealth gap, and less income for 'minorities', in light of the advancement of other minorities. Researching backwards rather than forward without prior conclusions. Can we experience life through data and reports, summarized with an agenda, rather than interacting with the world?

In this episode we are going over some bad parenting styles and their effects on kids. 1) Helicopter Parents - First used in 1969 in the book Parents & Teenagers by Dr. Haim Ginott's. Teens said their parents would hover over them like a helicopter; This is when parents are over focused on their kids. It's really over parenting. They are driven by fear, whether they think something bad will happen to their kid or they will feel embarassed themsevles. The parent might make sure they get a certain teacher at the school, getting over involved in their homework, and even directing their social activity. This may be ok for really small children but as they get older, it' doesn't work. But being faced with challenges and failing is necessary for growing and building resiliency. Sure we don't like to see our kids struggle but we have to prepare them for the real world. The consequences of helicopter parenting: Low self esteem - Everything is handled for them so they don't believe they can do anything themselves Anxiety - mental control is not developed as well as their self-regulation They feel entitled - They think they are the center of the universe Coping skills are not developed - They don't know how to handle situations because it was handled for them 2) Lawnmower Parents - They mow obstacles down in front of their kids so they don't experience them. It's so they don't need to face failure, adversity, or struggles. While their intentions might be good, the practicality of it is really bad. Most of the time lawnmower parents act the way they do because of their own issues in their life. They may have really struggled when they were young and don't want their child to struggle. or they felt abandoned by their parents when they really needed them. In any case they are wanting to help their child but it really doesn't help, in fact it ruins them. They simply won't know what to do or how to handle struggles in their life. So what are the consequences of lawnmover parenting: Don't know how to handle conflict - They havne't experienced it so that muscle wasn't developed They blame other people - It couldn't be their fault, nothing ever is. They don't take responsibility for their own issues Give up on things easily - It's too hard, so it's just better not to do it. Call on others (like their parents) to help them. Someone else will handle it so Stress and failure are really strong cryptonite to people who have been parented this way. They may find other ways of dealing with these kind of problems, like addiction. This can also be called Bulldoze parenting, Snowplough Parenting. Basically anything that can push the obstacles out of the child's way. 3) Tiger Parenting - This term was coined by Amy Chua in a 2011 memoir. It was originally a Chinese-American concept known for being strict and demanding. They parallelled it with strict households throughout parts of Asia. They put their children's academics and careers before anything else. Their child's only option is to succeed. This is very similar to a stage mother in Hollywood who forces her child to act or perform. Some of the consequences: depression anxiety poor social skills focus on the negative The parents may think of success differently than the child but the child's opinion doesn't really matter. They are accomplishing things for their parents. It makes the parent feel good without recognition of how the child might feel. I would imagine the relationships of these parents/child isn't very admirable as they get older. 4) Honorable mention The Outsourcer - get other people to parent your kids, like caretakers and nannys Underparents - slackers or free range, they just too lazy to do anything Narcissistic Parenting - Just feeding their own ego and driven by their own needs Toxic Parenting - This covers any type that is negative but basically means neglect, abuse both physical and emotional.
