Personally I think the Chinese mentality with respect to education isn't very applicable to the environment in Canada. Sure, I've had 20 long years of education in Canada, and I probably fall into that typical Asian stereotype. However, I've had lots of other Asian friends who have probably sacrificed more than they gained by going to so called good schools and ended up in limbo. I'll expand on it once I get home so I can type Chinese. I don't think pressing your kids to go to the best schools or programs will necessarily do them any favour.
