Does your day end with "Darling how come you got a C+ in Maths this Term? Oh what, I don't take having a bad teacher as an excuse! I want to see an A by the end of this Year. What, you don't think you"ll be able to do that? Now that's a cut in your pocket money".
Unfortunately this is the way most students live their school lives. And it's also hard to believe that the people who pressure you most to do better than you've already done, are no one else but your very own parents. .
About 76% of the Kids at school are being pressured without cause, when they have already tried their hardest, which is more than half of the people that sit in this very room.
A Quote that I picked out of hundreds which all say the same, interprets what maybe most of us want to hear and tell our parents so they understand that we can't go better. Dr. Richard Klein stated, after doing some research and Medical Tests on Kids that suffer of the Pressure factor, said that "Kids Parents in schools now days have so much higher expectations than the capability of the child itself. This can lead to lots of different illnesses, most of them mental, (one of those cases I shall reveal late ron) depression, stress, social insecurities and communicational problems with other peers". In other words, if you study day and night and become a Geek just for your parents" satisfaction, you won't be able to get back to your friends and have fun. But this isn't what this Speech about. This Speech isn't about your friends and I don't necessarily state it's bad to study, but this is for you to learn how to cope and maybe change your parents" view of your study life and your social life with friends, because, there's a big, big difference between those two, other then that a friend is a person who helps you study. .
Come on, let's be honest, we all have days when we just don't want to go to school and work and listen and write and read and work out stupid Maths problems that don't even make sense to us, some of us have them occasionally: some might have them a bit more often than good for them.
