Question:

According to research, does the Asian "tiger parent" exist?

Author: Ahmad Danial



Answer:

Contrary to popular perception, tiger parenting (strict and harsh) is not the most typical profile in Chinese American families, and where it does exist, it doesn't lead to optimal adjustment among Chinese American adolescents (Kim, Wang, Orozco-Lapray, Shen, & Murtuza, 2013). And in a study of Korean parents, researchers found a pattern of both authoritative and authoritarian -but not harsh- parenting (Choi, Kim, Kim, & Park, 2013). Similar patterns have been found in other cultures. For example, in a study of Pakistani parenting practices, researchers found that authoritative parenting was positively associated with emotional regulation in adolescents, whereas permissive parenting had the opposite effects (Jabeen, Anis-ul-Haque, & Riaz, 2013).
