The super stressful time of the year is here again with the Board examinations around the corner. Even after studying for a whole year, a child is assessed based on an exam lasting a few hours. The stress of the exam is leaving not only the kid freaked out but also her/ his parents.
The teenagers are busy with exam preparations and along with that, they have practical submissions that take a toll on them as well as their parents. These submissions are graded on file presentation, neatness and even number of sheets with beautification of outer cover too!
We parents should help and try to minimise the pressure of Boards by talking to our child. Support them to relieve the anxiety they are going through. Try to boost their confidence. Make them understand that exams are not the end.
We should encourage our child to give the Board examinations her/ his best, instead of stressing over it. Lastly, I wish every child appearing for the Board exams this year ”Good luck”!
