It's Raining Exams and Now…

During each of my morning walks, I come across nervous, curious mothers (Dads sometimes) holding a sheet with last minute revision for exams that is due for the kid. Even as small as 2nd grader is subjected to last minute glance at his / her book on bus stops by supervising parents. 

Come on, Spare your kids. How is it that so much statistical data of suicides and self harm by kids doesn't deter you from pressurizing them to last moment of reading? Kids waiting for their vans and buses want to enjoy nature, dogs, cats, flowers, morning vendors around them. Let them do it. Let's not forget the objective of Education is creating cultured, civilized society. Teach them to be good human beings, Certifications and Degrees are by-products of system. Don't make system a main purpose. 

Exams will come and go, our kids are our assets, teach them to know the importance of education and exam, let them consciously decide how they want to attempt these exams. That last moment of reading with you ever standing around would not be great tool to score anyways..

All opinions are welcome..
