When my board results came in 2018 my teachers called all the kids who scored above 80%, congratulated them and posted everywhere that look at these kids and called them on the annual day for the best students awards.

But nobody checked or called the kids who scored 60%.
And suddenly if these 60% kids did something brilliant and then they become the heroes of the school but again only when they will do something otherwise they are the failure in life.

I scored 64% and not at all a single teacher called me and said what are your plans!
My parents felt shy telling my marks to everyone because every other kid scored above 90%; I was inside my house for straight 3-4 days because I was the failure kid.

I still remember back in school how father was humiliated for my marks.
That was the first time I cried in my school; all teacher sorrounded my father and my class teacher did a bet with my father said ‘Your kid will be pulling a rickshaw or bus driver of the school someday’

OR

He will be a newspaper seller like you!

My father had tears.
My class teacher at the end added when she saw my father crying said

‘You don’t even have so much of money that you could send your kid to college also’

Since then I never went back to school. I only went once to get my documents for my the school to applying for uni.
It’s just a very simple thing that nobody will help you; I helped myself. You know the best lesson that I learned early in life that beileve in yourself and that’s enough.

There is never a failure, either you win or you learn.

Teach this to your kids.
