I have more than twenty years experience teaching in southern China and almost ten years in America. There are some students that do fit the little emperor stereotype. However many of my students are hard-working and understand that education is a way to advance in the world. Far more of my white middle-class American students fit the little emperor stereotype. I suggest changing the title from "Little emperor syndrome" to 'Little emperor stereotype'. Such a change would be more accurate and appear less demeaning.
I tried to give other references, but the most reliable I could find was Sports Illustrated. I hate to do this to a good article, but this needs sources quickly, as it has been tagged for six months. If nothing turns up, it might need pruning. Callix
I found that one too, but there are others. KTo288 01:52, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
You reckon it's good enough now? I don't know if they are relevant but it has a lot more sources than it needs. Stinkypie ( talk) 00:09, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
The references are a mess. Many of them are repeated several times with different footnote numbers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.174.177.125 ( talk) 08:42, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Is this syndrome related to the shortage of women in China today? -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 01:23, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
As far as I know it's more like both little emperor syndrome and shortage of women (although it is discussible) in China result from one-child birth policy -- Divcia 6:30, 2 June 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Divcia ( talk • contribs)
On the contrary, the gender divide is getting smaller and smaller in china. The girl:boy ratio is higher than it ever was before. Not to say that it is connected to this alleged "syndrome" but i am just stating the facts. 75.152.227.26 ( talk) 22:43, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
The Chinese term given in the article, 零八后, does not correspond to "Little Emperor Syndrome" in English, it is a (more or less neutral) term for people born in and after the 80s. The correct term is xiǎo huángdì 小皇帝, as given in the Japanese version of the article. See also this article in the Chinese-language online encyclopedia by Baidu.

> Boarding school, private English lessons, music lessons and an additional range of extracurricular activities are the normal fare though after tough competition only two percent of the Little Emperors will be able to study at a university.[1]
Sourcedy by a reference to an article from 29 Nov. 1997. A lot has changed since then. Taw ( talk) 23:08, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
I'd like pictures of spoiled kids. Maybe a pic of the parents and grandparents fawning over him/her, maybe a pic of the reported bathroom help, please help e here. thank! 137.30.122.155 ( talk) 20:56, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

The article seems to favor a western perspective, and mostly links British/United States newspapers rather than psychological sources. Citations 10 & 11 both fail to find reliable differences between only children and those with siblings. Propose this article be rewritten in a neutral point of view and directly link the referenced studies versus summary news sources. Omnitaus ( talk) 05:02, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
