Expectations of parents:
In the era when each and every parent want their kids to become none other but medical Doctor or Engineer, so is our expectations are very high from our next generations. We all as a parent gets worried when our kids take their quizzes, exams, finals. Sometimes and often parents are more nervous than the child who is going to sit in the test and take the challenge. In the competitive time, it has become more challenging as parents to think about what will be the outcome of the test and we become more anxious.
Most of the time we don’t think beyond the result of exam or test. Here is why?
But among the students who are sitting there for exams,
- There is a future Artist who don’t have to understand Math…
- There is a future Fashion Designer who doesn’t have to score too high in Biology…
- There is a future Entrepreneur who doesn’t care too much about History……
- There is a future Musician who doesn’t have to worry about chemistry score….
- There is an Athlete, who thinks his physical fitness is more important than the score of Physics…..
If your child gets a high score in all subject that’s great but if they are not performing excel in all subjects, that’s OK too.
But most importantly please don’t take away their passion, self-confidence, and dignity from them. Just think about your college/school life and you will find many are doing very well in real life than what they were scoring in exams during exams back then, isn’t it? It’s ok; there is bigger life ahead of them. Instead, tell them you love them and will not judge them by a just score of a test. Please do this and see the miracle and enjoy the difference. You will see them conquer the world and win your heart one day too. There are many other unforeseen reasons/situation and other influencing factors also play in your success and failures, ups and downs too. Nothing is permanent.
