tiger mothers
Strict Asian parenting
Tiger mothers are parents, typically mothers, who raise children with strict discipline, high expectations, and intensive academic pressure.
The term gained currency from Amy Chua's 2011 memoir and is associated with stereotypes about East Asian parenting styles.
A tiger mother prioritizes achievement over emotional nurturing: Her tiger mother had her practicing piano three hours a day.
