The stress Asian Parents give us to become something/someone

This article is on how hard and crucial it is that Asian students must strive to become something of themselves as they grow older to complete school for their degrees. Asian parents push their kids to go to school and learn more. The article from the Dallas-Morning news by By HOLLY YAN and STELLA M. CHÁVEZ, described how Chinese students attend school perhaps 6-7 days a week instead of only attending 5 days of school. In doing this, with the extra help and the extra practice on subjects such as Math, English, and Chinese language, students are progressing in school much better and much faster. The Chinese school has proved to help students academically and helped them preserve their culture and language.

Chinese school is not only for Asians, its open to the public for anyone attending elementary all the way thru high school. Jamal Abu 14, attended the Chinese school and he is black. His mother put him in this school to help him with math since he was struggling to understand the subject and now he comprehends the subject much better than before. Doug Wike, sent his two adopted Chinese girls to learn more about their culture and heritage. These schools has been around since the early 1900’s and they’ve still been going on strong helping students improve in school.

I think this article is worth reading because maybe students should if time allowed, study more. Not only does it help students improve on their academic skills, it'll help them prepare for college. Its interesting how many different perception you can take on this matter. Some parents beleive sports is the key to success, other parents think books and focusing on class is the key to their childs success. It all depends.

Here is the article, and take a look at the video yourself.
