Anybody else read this?

Title of the article is "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior" and here's an excerpt:

Here are some things my daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were never allowed to do:

• attend a sleepover
• have a playdate
• be in a school play
• complain about not being in a school play
• watch TV or play computer games
• choose their own extracurricular activities
• get any grade less than an A
• not be the No. 1 student in every subject except gym and drama
• play any instrument other than the piano or violin
• not play the piano or violin.


A bit much, I think ... other comments & opinions?
