About Event

Have you ever heard the term ‘Tiger mom’ or ‘Tiger parenting’?

The term was coined by Yale Law School professor Amy Chua in her 2011 memoir ‘Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother’.

The concept of a Tiger mom speaks to a form of strict parenting where parents are highly invested in ensuring their children's success. Children are pushed to attain high levels of academic achievement or success in other high-status extracurricular activities.

Iris Chen is an author, unschooler, and founder of the Untigering movement. After healing from the negative effects of authoritarian tiger parenting and unhealthy cultural expectations in her own life, she’s now on a mission to empower others to untiger by promoting mental health, peaceful parenting, and self-directed learning for children.

She recently moved back to California with her husband and two sons after 16 years of living in China. She is also the author of ‘Untigering: Peaceful Parenting for the Deconstructing Tiger Parent’.

In this upcoming event, Kelly Davis will be chatting to Iris about the Untigering movement as well as her own experiences with education, the Asian-American unschooling experience, and the role that freedom and autonomy play in unschooling.
