Signs of Autism

Signs of Autism

One of the websites that I frequently visit is Autism speaks. Many of the students that I interact with have Autism and the more that I am able to understand them, the more that I think I can reach out to them.

Why is one group of parents more successful?

Being raised in a bi-cultural background, I can definitely relate to many of the major points that this columnist shared in the article, "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior".

Please read this article and tell me what your thoughts are. I find it to be true in some respects, but also a little damaging on others.
