I've no experience living in Asian countries but asian cultures seem to be workaholic / ambitious and obedient. At least in South Korea many children's childhoods are ruined by insane educational pressure, lack of recovery time and sleep. In Korean culture, a child's success is directly linked to the family's social status. And I can only imagine the level of suffering among those children, let alone neurodivergent ones.

Japan seems to have a similar problem, although a less extreme version.
