You sure it isn't the disappointed parent thing?

Parental guilt tripping is an excellent means of producing the desired end, yes.
How long would it take to undo what was bred into someone? 🤔
1 generation of a new culture?
There's plenty of lazy third+ generation Asian-Americans. The quality of parental upbringing is vitally important to success in life.
Note: I'm a 5th generation American. The cultural pressure can survive a very long time. I intend to similarly punish my kids, for their own sake.
There's about 30 generations of breeding for a specific outcome, so it's hard to see it going away in a single generation. Maybe 5 to 10? Depends on cultural context and what's prioritized instead.
Time to keep the desired outcome...😄
I meant to write "encourage".
my kid is mostly asian and boy does he get his homework done quick but only after mentioning no video game privileges until hwk complete.
