>Isn't she in violation of Chinas one child policy.

As Tamar mentioned, she's Chinese-American.

>Having home educated I saw a wide range of parenting styles. The only thing I learned from that is that good parenting is a pretty wide spectrum and provided you love and don't beat or starve your children then people best not judge each other.

I'm not making judgement about her parenting styles ... just that I wouldn't want to raise my kids quite that way (and didn't). No sleep-overs? No play-dates? (well, my kids didn't have play-dates ... they just went outside and played with all the other neighborhood kids). And what's wrong with being in school plays? I think that's a wonderful experience for a kid ... it teaches them a lot of self-confidence and to not fear public speaking (which I could have used when I was a kid).
