It’s only natural for parents to want their kids to excel in whatever they do, especially studies. But some parents are obsessed with the idea of their kids scoring above 90% that they forget all about their child’s happiness and desires. So, when a child scores a percentage that is below their expectations, they are disappointed to the extent that they stop talking to them or even worse, punish them.
However, a girl took to Twitter to share how she saw a mother celebrating after her daughter scored 76% – a score which is otherwise considered average. She was happy to witness the kind of support the girl got from her mother.
saw this one aunty posting her daughters 10th boards result which is 76% and she’s celebrating her so much, like that’s exactly the kind of support parents should give 🥹

A lot of people shared similar examples from their own lives or from people they know where the parents celebrated regardless of what their kids scored in their board exams. It is indeed heartwarming to see a pool of parents whose love for their child is not conditional and they would support them no matter what.
Bro our neighbours even sent meethai on their son’s 55℅ result in matric, celebrating that at least He passed

In my house we say, all that pressure sweat worry etc. should be before exams, once results come, whatever they are, it’s a cause for celebration. Pass hogaya na bas! https://t.co/txoP1Ne21g

2009: I informed my parents that I was gonna fail. So when I scored 58%, they went completely berserk, distributing kilos of sweets in the neighborhood.
2015: My younger sibling anticipated achieving a score of 90% or higher, but she ended up with 84%. Ghar mein maatam mana tha. https://t.co/UVHVMJp4L3

my uncle’s son passed his 10th boards with 35.4% and he invited us all for a dinner in a fine dine restaurant, i think this was 2010
no one gave him a chance to pass, he did against all odds, and that’s why the celebration
(he was taught maths by my father 🤣🤣, passed it w 35) https://t.co/RUSiwSkN16— chonky pandey (@imajokin) June 2, 2023
Life is a very long journey. In the future, the same kid will realise that marks really didn’t matter in shaping their life.
This is parenting done right! 😀
