My view of U.S. vs Chinese parenting culture/practices is biased.

I tend to feel U.S. one is weaker, ineffective and failing, but look at the output of these two parenting cultures. Out of 10,000 comparable (mostly white-collar or middle-class) families, the number of “successful” (beyond grades) adult children is not higher among the Chinese. In fact, as soon as we look beyond standardized benchmarks, the comparative picture would be very very different between the two cultures.
