My sterotype-alarm went off. But I have noticed competitiveness most in asian parents, but usually immigrants or first gen. If you know a bit about asian culture you'll probably have noticed that many want to suceed. Freom what I understand, from asian friend,s being succesful brings honor to your family. So keeping good grades and passing your SATs is a bigger deal than it may be for westerners. Also, there are alot of people, and probably giong after the same jobs. So parents try to do what they can, for the good of the hcild, to make them more comeptitive. if they need to learn english, they take a course at school or go to a hagwon. If the need tutoring, they get it. Parents who seem to do that in the west the most, that i know, are immigrants. And guess what? their children are successful. Most of the parents seem to simmer down after a few years but made sure their children made good grades.
