March in March with love

Dear Parents,

March is not just another month in the calendar. In many homes, it is the month of exams. It’s a

month of Emotion for whole family. There is silence in the hall, books on the dining table, and

emotions running high. But this March, let us choose something different. Let us March… with Love.

5 Things Every Parent Can Say During Exam Season

1. "Marks are important… but YOU are more important." Remind your child that their worth is never decided by Marks. They are the best.

2. "I trust your effort";

Trust reduces pressure. Pressure blocks memory. When children feel trusted, they perform with

clarity.

3. "It’s okay to feel nervous";

Normalize their emotions. Even toppers feel anxious before exams.

4. "I know you will manage best’

Just leave them. Don’t do spoon feeding, Give them space. Do not interfere in their study plans

unless they ask for help. This builds confidence. And it strengthens your relationship with them.

5. "I am proud of you."

Not after results. Now. Be proud of their effort, discipline, and sincerity.

A Gentle Reminder for Parents.

a. Stop justifying your children & don’t bother about justifying others who ask you, which field your child took? How they are preparing? Honestly few questions are very customary which people ask. The moment they walk out of your house they will not even remember what you answered.

b. Reduce comparisons. Reduce fear-based motivation. Reduce discussions about other children’s marks. Increase warm meals. Increase calm conversations. Increase silent support and reassuring smiles. Board exams will finish in a few weeks. But the memories of how you made them feel will stay for years. This March, let us not just prepare children for exams. Let us protect their hearts.
