I'm re-reading The Joy Luck Club again, and i'm still fascinated with the stories of all these women :)
And as i was reading Jing-Mei Woo's Story (The Joy Luck Club)this line from page20 grabbed my attention.
"There's a School of Thought"...
"that parents shouldn't criticize children. They should encourage instead. You know, people rise to other people's expectations. And when you criticize it just means you're expecting failure."...
I agree that when you criticize, you're expecting failure because you have this thoughts, doubts that the person you're expecting from is not capable of doing such things.
You have to put all your trust and encourage that person, believe in their capabilities. Help them become better. They need you to pull all of this together.
ciao.
