Why Parents Need To Stay Positive After Their Kid’s Board Exam Results?

PUBLISH DATE 22nd May 2024

As the board exam results are out, it's natural for students to feel a lot of emotions like a mix of anxiety, excitement, and relief. As a parent, your initial reaction can be a defining moment in your child's life. A positive reaction can be a powerful catalyst, propelling them forward with renewed enthusiasm and energy, while a negative response can lead to feelings of inadequacy and disappointment.

As a parent, you have the power to shape your child's experience and perception of their results. It's natural to feel a mix of emotions - concern, disappointment, and perhaps even a hint of frustration. But in this moment, it's crucial to respond with empathy, understanding, and positivity. Acknowledge their feelings, validate their efforts, and remind them that one setback does not define their entire academic journey. By doing so, you'll create a safe and supportive environment that encourages your child to learn from their mistakes, dust themselves off, and try again with renewed confidence.

According to the Dr. Maithili Tambe, CEO of The Academy School, positive reinforcement is so important when it comes to helping your child navigate the aftermath of board exam results. As a parent, your words and actions have a profound impact on your child's self-perception and confidence. By focusing on the positive aspects of their performance, you can help shift their attention away from disappointment and towards a growth mindset.

Positive reinforcement is not about sugarcoating or ignoring areas for improvement, but rather about acknowledging and celebrating effort, progress, and achievement. When you praise your child's hard work and resilience, you encourage them to develop a sense of self-worth that is not solely tied to their grades. This, in turn, can lead to a more optimistic outlook, increased motivation, and a stronger desire to learn and improve.

Parents need to celebrate progress, not just achievement as it is a subtle yet powerful shift in mindset that can have a profound impact on your child's emotional well-being and motivation. When we focus solely on achievement, we unintentionally create a culture of winner-takes-all, where only the highest scores or grades are deemed worthy of recognition and praise.

As the dust settles on the board exam results, it's essential for both students and parents to take a collective deep breath, process their emotions, and focus on the next steps. By being a positive and supportive influence, you'll be giving your child the ultimate gift – the ability to thrive beyond the score, and to succeed in all aspects of life.
