00:01In order to mentally prepare your child for exams, it is very important to tell
00:06them that it's an important self-assessment. They'll get to know what
00:11they have done, how much they have learned, how much they know. But at the
00:15same time, it should be emphasized that it's not a catastrophe, it's not the end
00:20of world. Secondly, children should be told and encouraged to maintain a very
00:25balanced lifestyle where they can balance their studies, friend time, internet time,
00:31movies, everything. That will kind of help them to take exams with ease. Thirdly,
00:39during exams, before exams, children are prone to have acute kind of anxieties.
00:45It is very important for the parents to understand these anxieties and not to
00:50rubbish them. I often see parents telling their children that it's irrational, it's
00:55going to be fine. Don't worry so much. Though these things are very good
00:58intention, they tend to be very unhelpful. You need to hear and understand what the
01:04child is feeling.
