Parents, don't let love become pressure.

Instead of pressure, let's keep the love of parents as a positive source of motivation, so that children can maximize their potential confidently and happily in their future journey.

This year's high school graduation exam is a special one. Because this will be the last batch of candidates to take the graduation exam under the 2006 General Education Program.

According to statistics from the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET), more than 1 million candidates will take the 2024 high school graduation exam at 2,323 exam locations and 45,149 exam rooms nationwide.

With such an important and special nature, the exam always receives great attention from society.

Deputy Minister of Education and Training Pham Ngoc Thuong, who is also Head of the National Steering Committee for the 2024 High School Graduation Exam, said that the whole country has prepared carefully, proactively, fully, and is ready to organize the exam safely, seriously, in accordance with regulations and in practice.

In a Confucian Asian society like Vietnam, exams are still one of the most important things. Goals such as high scores, excellent achievements, and admission to prestigious universities are all familiar.

Therefore, for students, exams are always an important time in life. There are many mixed emotions, in which nervousness and pressure are unavoidable feelings.

Parents, even living in modern society, often tend to place too many expectations on their children, sometimes without realizing the side effects of these expectations.

In reality, if parents put too much pressure on their children for exams, it can make them feel anxious, lack confidence, and even lose their passion for learning.

Obviously, the concern and love of parents and relatives need to be expressed properly, otherwise, it will inadvertently become an unwanted burden of pressure on children.

Love from parents needs to be expressed in more positive ways than just through expectations and pressure about exam results.

To prevent love for children from becoming an unwanted burden and pressure, parents need to understand and accept that each person and each relationship has their own way of expressing and feeling.

We need to put sincerity and naturalness first, not forcing ourselves or others into loving frameworks that we ourselves impose.

Psychologists believe that encouragement and sincere support from parents are important factors for children to develop comprehensively, not only in their studies but also in other aspects of life.

Instead of just focusing on grades and achievements, parents should also pay attention to their children's overall development, including mental and psychological aspects.

Let's keep parental love as a positive source of motivation and never as pressure, so that children can maximize their potential confidently and happily in their future journey.

Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Kim Son noted that this year’s high school graduation exam has some differences compared to previous years. This is the group of candidates who have suffered the most from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Therefore, after the epidemic was controlled, the education sector had many support activities, supplementing knowledge so that students could be confident and fulfill the exam requirements well; at the same time, the questions were also carefully calculated to be appropriate.
