mentally ill, or just very funny and bored? Sometimes at family gatherings I will take up a ridiculous and completely refutable position, ("The US should just buy Mexico to solve illegal immigration. I mean people still live in tailors in tornado ally, so all the Mexicans will just stay in 'New-new Mexico: America's newest state'") just to pass the time...I think this may be similar.
Am I the only one who measured my bra size after seeing this? Turns out I'm a 34D and NOT a 36C! I hope no permanent damage has been done to my large tissue/nipple area...

Well, of course that depends on what one means by "east," in most cases, one is usually speaking of Asian cultures, which have a strong collectivist influence compared to our individualistic "western" society. So, yes, "east" and "west" still have their place in academia, at least in behavioral and social science.
I agree that they have their place, but they do not generalize - which is the whole point on a book on parenting?
Whether she is a nut job or not, she is still spreading wrong information. I'm currently writing my dissertation on parenting styles and their relation to the psychological well-being of children (yea, yea, graduate students are the worst, I know), and what is considered the "best" parenting style is so culturally dependent as to make "a hybrid of the best of eastern traditions and western traditions" almost entirely irrelevant to anyone who is not that woman. ALSO, anecdotes have their place - story time. STAY OUT OF RESEARCH, ANECDOTES (nobody likes you, and everyone thinks you are ugly).
Exactly my thought. While watching I was torn between the notion that Albania is a really safe place (because if not, they would conserve their bullets for more pressing bullet purposes), but then I weigh that against how personally safe I'd feel at that picnic (not very).
Is this why my mom got so upset when I would spill my milk? She thought it was a gateway accident to Satan worshiping? She should have just said so, and I could have saved us all some time and worry; it was all the kitten murdering that really led to the Satan worshiping. Silly mom.
His theoretical "ignorant" voter wants to keep abortion for his own selfish interests so he can have sex without consequences and ALSO promote his homosexual life-style. I must be confused about gay sex. I'm going to try googling "gay sex" to see if I can get an explanation on Wikipedia. I'll let you know what I find.
