My thoughts are complex. Overall it's probably no big deal, not in the long run, but it also sounds like some of her actions rise to the level of abuse. Honestly I'd be surprised if every parent didn't cock up royally at times, but still she's proud of it. And then there's the issue of stereotyping her experiences as 'Chinese' compared to 'Western' where in reality she's 'strict' and dislikes 'permissive' parenting. All 'western' parents aren't permissive just as all Chinese parents aren't strict.
And that's without reading it. Which I don't intend to
