These days, some parents tend to overemphasise the academic achievements of their child. They overlook the need for a comprehensive approach in raising children and focusing on different aspects of development.

As a result, their child may be less emotionally resilient and his mental health may be affected. He may get stressed easily when facing a big exam or become too anxious when meeting new people.
