In today’s rapidly evolving global world, the pressure on students to excel academically has intensified. However, behind every successful student, there is often a dedicated parent who works tirelessly to support and guide them. In this era of fast-growing technology, changing education systems, and global competition, parents are doing their very best to help their children succeed in school.
Many parents, even with limited resources, prioritise education by investing in quality learning material, private tutoring, and online tools. They adjust their schedules, sacrifice personal time, and create a supportive learning environment at home. With the growing influence of digital media and distractions, parents also play a crucial role in keeping their children focused, managing screen time, and encouraging healthy study habits.
Moreover, the globalised world requires children to be not only academically capable but also emotionally resilient and socially aware. Parents are stepping up to teach values such as discipline, perseverance, and adaptability — qualities that are essential for success today. They participate in school meetings, stay in touch with teachers, and help set goals for their children’s future.
While schools are important, the family remains the first classroom. Parents are not perfect, but many are doing their absolute best under challenging circumstances to prepare their children for a competitive world.
As a society, we should recognise and support the efforts of parents. Their role is more important than ever in shaping the minds and hearts of the next generation.
