asian kids... too much pressure?

Claim: Asian parents need to stop pressuring their kids so much.

Reason: Asian kids are more likely to commit suicide than American kids because of the pressure from their parents
Evidence: Chronicle Online takes a survey of students who have committed suicide at Cornell and most are Asian students.
Reason: Asian kids may end up in a job or future that they do not like.
Evidence: From personal observations asian students are expected to excel in their college courses and major in a subject their parents see as respectable. For example, majoring in medicine, engineering, or sciences.
Reason: Asian kids have lower self-esteem because their goals are set so high
Evidence: An article by Andrew Lam talks about a Korean rock star who rates himself lower than what others think he is.
Reason: Asian parents pressure kids to stay close to the family and as a result they dont know what to do when they get to college and they get all this freedom.
Evidence: From experience asian dads are normally very strict on their kids. College is for many asian students the first time they've spend significant time away from home. So when they get to college Asian students are exposed to new experiences.
