Regarding the article, it is shocking to hear that some children are pressed with the highest pressure from parents in Singapore. More than 50% of patients are primary students who went for checkup at IMH - Institute of Mental Hospital and were found to have problems such as learning problems, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorders or unable to control their emotions. It becomes a worrying cause for the IMH.
Although we view the “99 marks” as being good works, some students and parents do not find it satiable at all. If they score 99 marks, they will still be scolded severely by parents. It is an unfair treatment and is different from other parents who will praise their children for the “99 marks”.
Even I find “80 marks scored” as “It is at least A which is good enough”.
Nowadays, we can understand that our world is a fast-paced society and moves by the mindset “Whoever has the greatest knowledge, will get a good job and pay too.” Many will try to get the highest education as possible as they can.
It also applies to parents who are not being considerate of their children’s hard efforts and emotions. They should learn to give the right treatment to their children such as treating them with whatever they want if they can get good result. Unlike the treatment where parents will keep pressuring their parents to get full marks despite getting a good result. If their children cannot a prefect score, they should accept their children’s abilities and view it as a good job the children did.
