I can't believe the obsession people have with the self-esteem and the pressure they put on kids nowadays. I read the papers for the past week after SPM results was out, kids having scored 11A1 and 1 A2 was so disappointed and upset. Words like "fail" and "lose" are getting phrased too often in the education system. Hence hurting fragile feelings. I remembered getting P7 for my Bashasaa Malayu in my SPM, this marks is not "miserable failure" at that time, it's called "under-performance".
Nowadays, people blame the kids for not performing, instead during my time was blaming everyone else I "underperformed". Just blame the teacher, maid, principal, education system, society, violent video game, MetroVision (bankrupt TV Station), drugs and of course, Metallica. (Enter Sandman)
How time change, Peace!
