From TBS eFM:
Professor Jennifer Lee is the author of The Asian American Achievement Paradox and
joins us live from the School of Social Sciences at the University of California,
Irvine. … “The Jennifer Pan case… fits a stereotype of how Asian American parents
are overbearing, and strict, and tiger mom-ish … this is very much a stereotype and

be like.”
