You're absolutely right. Parents often have high expectations because they want the best for their children. It's understandable that their expectations can sometimes create pressure to succeed.
I definitely relate. Especially because I have grown up in an Asian household where good grades and academics are prioritized. Many times if I get a bad grade on a test, my whole world will crumble and I feel as if I am failing my parents. It affects my whole mood and often leads to arguments with my familiy. What should I do to fix this?
Thank you for sharing your feelings and experiences here. I completely understand how challenging it can be to navigate the pressures of academics, especially in an Asian household where good grades are highly valued.
Try talking out your situations with bad test scores with your parents. Let them know that you studied very hard and tried your best. What are the arguments with your family really based on?
