I saw this article somewhere on Watsapp for parenting tips during exams of their kids or their wards or children.

I have seen parents under more stress than their  son or, daughter and instead of releasing tension from their kids or children, they unknowingly make the situation reverse.

I like this article and parents should read this for themselves and their kids wellness.

Dear Parents, Congratulations!  , ........If Your child is appearing for his/her boards or any exam..., Its indeed a proud moment that your child has excelled beautifully in his journey till STD 10 or 12 or any exam. Now that they are starting with their exams, next 20 days or so,  is going to be crucial from them as well as you too.

- Lot of mood swings, sadness, enthusiasm, relaxed behavior,  rudeness etc can be expected from the children. And it's ok since lot of unnecessary stress has been built up by our education system as well as social system, when it comes to Board Exams or big exams.

Let's support our children. ..How you can do that? Some simple tips ….. which can be implemented from your end, to help your child cope up with the stress.

A..Please wake them up in the morning with a positive stroke, a touch/ hug  which a child expects from his parents.
