A

"Beating is a sign of affection, cursing (骂）is a sign of love."

Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern times—with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been-but experts say they still ring true.

Today, it seems, Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre-college military academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way to success.

But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy this y
