I show this WSJ article to my sons http://bit.ly/fdgIpQ about how I am not only one. Today I can boss them around without impunity

Long holiday weekend is extra time for study and practice!

Today is too many distractions. We only give sons ipod as reward for straight A but take away when distraction causes B+

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

Just games on ipod are stupid. Checking sports is stupid. My sons won't be joining NFL .

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

Kids do bad things on ipod even without internet. I still check history.

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

@waynepark I say that. I take ipod away and hide it

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

@waynepark You have an Asian mother I assume

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

I believe in constant criticism

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

Then we say- play over and over again. Ten times without mistake. Don't just play whole music piece just once

Asian mothers scream when their child practices and plays wrong note. It is just natural.

My son's piano teacher writes him notes during lesson. They are same as my saying to him while he practices. My ear is good!

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

I can do Twitter when I wait for my son with late piano lesson. Every hour must be filled with good activity! :)

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

The problem with school is starting. Now I must concentrate on every detail of son's lives

Groupon is great. We try a new restaurant every weekend. Good thing we don't live in tiny town with one restaurant.

[AsianMother @AsianMother]

I bought a Groupon for discount restaurant. In Asia, cannot use a Groupon twice at same restaurant. It's rude.

Friday night is extra night for practicing and studying!

I noticed American Idol auditions at San Francisco Ball Park yesterday. I thought no chance to hear sonatas.

My two sons have grown up two more years. And now they are better musicians
