Don't know if this qualifies as crazy, but most asian parents in a nutshell

My father was an engineer and would try to push me to do math that was several years above me, and then call me a retard when I couldn't do it. I eventually developed a sort of math anxiety, because seeing it just reminded me of being screamed at for hours. I had straight As until that point in junior high.

I got a D for the first time in my life, and he cancelled the internet to the house immediately, citing that as the reason why. Clearly watching DBZ AMVs was disrupting my schoolwork, not being screamed at for 3 hours a night. I was grounded for 11 months. At that point in the early 2000s, teachers expected you to have net at home. I had to stay after almost daily just to use the school internet, which I hated. All of my grades began to tank after that, as depression and isolation set in. They never recovered. He still blames anime! :)
