What my father did when I got low marks. I'll never forget it, thought I'll share it today.
Seeing many posts regarding parent's reaction to results on here. Thought I'll share my own unique experience.
I'm in college right now. The worst results that i ever got was in 11th. It was around 55%. Obviously my parents were expecting nothing below 90%.
The day the results were out, he took me to a restaurant and asked me to order whatever food I wanted. I was surprised but ate heartily. Once done he told me 'adutha varsham 12thil vaangan pona markin vendiya ith vaangi thanne' (basically told me it was a pre-gift for the marks i would get in 12th next year)). I felt so motivated and loved.
I felt zero pressure next year, ended up scoring 95%.
Hope more parents would be like that ❤️.
