Gone are those days!
and gone are those feelings!
When parents used to be happy on saying "pappu pass ho gaya". today no parent wants their child to just pass the class, they want their child to be among the toppers and this pressure has created an unhealthy competition . Studies have extended the boundaries of its meaning , it do not just mean to gain knowledge but it has become a battle which every student wants to win "by hook or by crook " .
Preassure of scoring high marks have been created by the parents and family as if their prestige in the society depends on the percentage scored by their child. Another mean which dumps the child into the pressure is the competitive world and the fear of getting a good college or a good job with a low percentile.
These a days marsheets have become the identity of a student. But why do we forget that elbert einstine never had an "A" grade marksheet but his achievements are appaulsed by everyone.
Studies have become a "hot case" whose pressure many a times forces a student to commit suicide .Dippression is a common problem which can be seen in the students due to low percentage or faliure in exams. At such a tight corner of life there is a need for family and friends to come up and support the child so that he could come up and die-hard fpor next time .
We all are part of this society and its our respomnsibility to improve the mental level of the society. Percentage should not be consiere a matter of prestige . Success and faliures comes in every ones life its on you how you celebrate your success and fights with your faliures.
