As we all know, in this Thai economy system, 90% of Thai students were told by their parents to work hard on their studies to get good grades. Meanwhile, almost every student is having trouble with this because they have to stay on their parent’s expectations which is the number 1 student problem they’re facing these days. 

How is this trouble? 

The problem is that kids are having too much pressure at such a low age and this can make a huge impact on their emotions when they grow up. And most of the pressure came for their parent’s high expectations of their kid’s grade by not realizing how hard they work. Then what can kids do to fix this problem? Most of them didn’t fix the problem very well. Some of them start to hate their parents, some hurt themselves or even manage to end everything by suicide. But there are also arguments that the teachers and adults were arguing these days. They said all of these are just an excuse. They don’t really care how kids will feel.

How can you prevent this?

First thing first, parents should stop judging their kids because the more you judge them, the more you judge them, the more pressure they get. So what’s wrong kids having pressure? The answer is on the above. What you wanna do is, you should give them encouragement, you should support them even though they got low grades. You should help them fix the problem.

Also, 1 thing I wanna add is, these days, grades aren’t that important as knowledge. These days, grades are only points or scores that tell how hard we study, but grades aren’t scores that will judge our future.

So what do we do to make them enthusiastic?

Many adults are telling their children that the reason they’re judging them is that they care about us, they want us to gain better grades or better scores. Without judging them then they wouldn’t be enthusiastic about their grades. But can we make be more enthusiastic? The first thing is, you don’t want to intrude on them because all the kid’s pressure is from parents were intruding on kid’s learning and that includes grades. Then you want to give them encouragement as I said on the above. Giving them encouragement and help them fix their problems will make them be more confident about their work and be more enthusiastic.
