I'm guessing you're from the USA RI Clown, but anyway two points that should be clarified 1) Which country are you in 2) Asian covers a huge range of people of many countries and cultures, so it might not be ideal to lump them altogether.

Speaking of the largest Asian group in the UK which are Indians, there is a tendency for a lot of Indians to act this way with their children. This by and large from my experience of having Indian friends, is that their parents had it hard as immigrants and in many ways harder than a lot of other immigrants did. It was therefore drummed into them that a good education which the British system provided back then was the key to their future success, as was showing business acumen as well. A few generations later, this demand for excellence by Indian parents for their children seems as strong as ever. Also the Indian population (extraction) here usually studies engineering, mathematics, sciences and business, subjects which are likely to earn them money.

I'm talking about the old Asian cultures of the Far East. (e.g.: China, Taiwan, South Korea, etc.) I do not think that India is a far eastern country, however, Indian culture and Far Eastern culture have many similarities.

No wonder you aren't doing so well in school. Go take a look at a globe kiddo.
