From personal experience, what I believe Asian parents teach their children about school:
1) Unless you are the very best in your class, you are a failure.
2) Anything less than straight "A's" on your report card shames your ancestors.
3) You must do anything to be better than everyone else in your classes. It is not cheating unless you get caught.
The result is children who are hyper-competitive and oversensitive to the slightest perceived imperfection. They are miserable, driven creatures who view rules as obstacles in their pursuit of the top and will not hesitate to cheat or sabotage someone else to gain a competitive advantage.

C'mon now... You're claiming that Asians encourage their children to cheat?
I would think that would be dishonorable.
