GLaDOS is the ultimate Tiger Mother.

I recently finished reading Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua, which gained a bit of notoriety last year (maybe it was the year before) for claiming the “Chinese” parenting style as superior.

I’ve been playing Portal 2 more lately and it just occurred to me: GLaDOS is the ultimate Tiger Mother.

Harsh. Sometimes mean. Ironically encouraging.

Yup, sounds just like a Tiger Mommy.

No wonder she freaks everyone out. Amy and GLaDOS.
