1...GREAT POST! I had two thoughts as I read this.<br /> 1.The Tiger Mom ...is she that outrageous or was she just out to sell her book.<br /><br />2. Yes, I think even though she may have exaggerated a bit, I think she is that outrageous.<br /><br />Thanks for the laugh and good luck.

On my blog, besides the giveaways, I think my post on "Why Homeschooling Mothers Are Superior" (a response to Tiger Mom) got the most comments, but nowhere the 100 mark!<br />Best,<br />Linda<br />P.S.

We home educate our own children. He is even more convinced that he does not want his children in school. Education is far more than memorizing for a test and then forgetting what you learned. It is far more than a school doing well on the yearly achievement tests. Most teachers just teach to that yearly test. Not much real education goes on in schools.Serenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8172699097894278564.post-24282052298594840532011-03-23T15:29:34.339-05:002011-03-23T15:29:34.339-05:00WildIris:

Misi...Well, since you begged for comments ;) hehe <br /><br />Misinformation and prejudice bothers me so much that I really cannot post much on hot topics anymore... I regret it, THEY regret it.. It is just better all around if I just don't :) Besides, I don't care what they think anyhow. I don't think very highly of lots of people, but I like to assume they are doing their best. And since I like my own freedoms, I like to leave them to theirs...<br /><br />Good post though!! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8172699097894278564.post-22793041266003214742011-03-23T12:36:23.229-05:002011-03-23T12:36:23.229-05:00This was a very entertaining post.
