The term "tiger mother" ("tiger mom") was coined by Yale Law School professor Amy Chua in her 2011 memoir ''Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother''. A largely Chinese-American concept, the term draws parallels to strict parenting styles ostensibly common to households in East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, along with other developing regions of the world beyond Asia, including Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Arab world.
