It depends on what kind of tiger parents they are. The good ones take their kids to all these classes and encourage them to work hard and do well in the area they show talent/interest in, spend hours supervising assignments with their kids and try to make it "fun" for them.
The horrible ones...
Deadbeat dad flees to Philippines leaving four kids without support | Toronto Star
Ignore the biased title and actually read the story to see how messed up Canadian marriage laws are, and I imagine it is the same in all the "developed" western countries and Japan. Husband gave the wife a...
They do it because of tax rate arbitrage.
Its the same here in Canada when our dollar was high compared with the USD, everyone living close to the border rush across to grab all the cheap milk, eggs, and gas from the states which are taxed less and are also subsidized by the American...
The Greeks in general do work very hard. The whole thing about Greeks being lazy moochers is a stereotype that only applies to certain parts of the public sector that have control of the country (ex. government bureaucrats, unions in essential economic sectors).
The problem with those austerity...
Screw Apple, that lawsuit happy company and North American carrier oligopolies are the reason why we have absolutely no good affordable smartphone choices at all.
While Asia is drowning in a sea of great affordable phones, here in Canada I'm stuck with a choice of 3-4 "Only $199" $600 phones...
American shale producers are also supported by zero interest rate, easily available QE money financing and frenzied investors expecting big profits at $100+ per barrel of oil.
Shale oil declines at such a fast rate that it needs a constant source of cheap financing and high pricing to be...
A BOX of instant noodles, not one packet / one cup. You know, the ones they always put above the top shelf in supermarkets, with like 6 cups inside or a dozen packets.
I only chose instant noodles as an example because it is difficult to remember how many cents a pound increase in vegetable...
Food prices here in Canada is also rising like crazy thanks to the Saudi oil price war as well as the US dollar manipulation by the US.
A box of instant noodle here cost a bit more than $13 two years ago, now it is approaching $16...nearly a 20% increase.
Our homegrown produce and stuff from...
Remember the flak China got last year by the media about how little they donated?
This is why China / HK / Taiwan only focused on material support instead of writing the Philippines a huge cheque after Typhoon Haiyan. They know the Philippines officials will just pocket half of it and use the...
The Irish hunger strike in 1981 was a real hunger strike.
This will probably be the same type of hunger strike our great First Nation chief Theresa Spence did where she got even fatter after six week.
I guess that Joshua Wong kid could use this type of hunger strike since he looks unhealthily...
:hitwall:
They JUST took whatever little money given to them by EU/US/IMF to start a war campaign and you are asking for proof? They couldn't even pay or equip their soldiers properly, who knows where all the money went. Even before that they couldn't make anything happen with discount gas, a...
Great! This will allow Samsung to expand their collection of phone models to include every letter of the alphabet, every word in the English dictionary, and every number combination. /s

The hydrogen bomb is mostly a nuclear fusion bomb already. It's just that it still uses nuclear fission initially to get the energy to start the nuclear fusion reaction.
A pure fusion bomb probably won't yield much improvement to the already destructive power of the fission/fusion hybrid, but...
