Finished. Had book club. She was a little extreme, but loves her kids.

Starting this for book club!

Almost can't finish reading this, it pisses me off so much

Just finished the audiobook, which Chua reads herself. Compelling and utterly cringe-inducing.

An extremely interesting and thought provoking read specially now that I think from a mother's perspective

If the next time you're not perfect, I'm going to burn all your stuffed toys!

I am finding this book unusually entertaining. Can relate, super.

just finished! now I can go to bed. :)

Might be a bit over the top but her parenting model makes a lot of sense and I'll be putting some of it into practice.

I see nothing wrong with her method. That's how my parents raised me and I don't know what I'll be without it.

I want successful kids, but at what expense?

This should help me get prepped up to be a mother, whenever that would be

Incrível! Uma forma completamente diferente de encarar a criação dos filhos. Confesso que algumas crenças fizeram muito sentido para mim. Há muito sobre o que refletir.

finishing the last bits... then i´m out of books to read! huaaaaaaaaaa
