Round 1
TH, as an immigrant parent raising a child in a Western nation, would use jellyfish parenting over tiger parenting
Info Slide
Tiger parents aim to raise high-achieving children who are successful in all areas of their lives and have a strong work ethic. These high levels of expectations stem from parental love and care, as well as a strong desire to see their child succeeding. Jellyfish parents are more lenient and permissive in their parenting. They often let children make their own decisions while offering friend-like advice rather than giving strict guidance. Jellyfish parents very rarely use punishments to discipline their children.
