「 craving away 8:22 AM 」

I have always been pondering on this question.
'Why do parents always look at the downside of their child?'

This question came across my mind again when I showed them my results.
I was enraged at the fact that they keep picking the the subjects i failed.
Firstly, they don't even bother to listen to whatever reasons for you failing.
Secondly, they will keep saying about your attitude and your time management.
Thirdly, they will say about your future and tell us not to blame them if you are not successful in the future.

Well, I don't know how are your parents but these are mine. They did not gave any positive remarks and never will.
And when they said about me going to ITE, I was really pissed.
How can they have no faith in me? To me, it was a total insult.
Perhaps they already disappointed and gave up hope on me as I used to be study maniac in primary school but my grades decline over the years.
But how can they not consider about my feelings?

What's worse is that when I show them my praise report, they totally ignored it and chuck it aside. "What use has this in your future?" They used to use this line'
No encouragement, no nothing. Sarcastism is frequent.

Same goes to the results. Subjects that i have improved has never brought me compliments and praises but nevertheless ignored.


Showing report cards to parents has never been easy for me in the past years and the comments on it will never change.
Is it that hard to listen to what others have to say? Does being the parents really give you higher authority? Parents' words definitely have a great impact on their children.




Is praising someone really that hard?
