Wealthy Chinese Sending More Kids to U.S. Military Schools

Posted on November 11, 2009 by Ernie

Let’s face it: at least once in your childhood you were threatened by your parents that they would take you away to military school, away from soft western luxuries like a Nintendo or drinks with High Fructose Corn Syrup to a tough regimen of marching and getting hazed by kids four years older than you. It definitely seems to be the case for a new generation of wealthy Chinese who are sending their kids to American military schools. One parent proudly boasts that “They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future.” HOLY SHIT DAD, IS THAT YOU?
