DHAKA, July 28, 2023 (BSS) - Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today called upon the parents to pay more attention to their children, saying that extending cooperation to them can help develop skills of the kids as per their merit.
“Don’t compare your kids to the children of another person rather let them develop their skills as per their merit,” she said while unveiling the results of Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examinations-2023 at a ceremony at her official residence Ganabhaban here.
The premier also urged the parents to take initiatives to make their children, who became unsuccessful in the examination, concentrate on their studies. “Don’t scold them, rather give them more affection and love so that they focus on their studies.”
Mentioning that education is such a wealth which cannot be taken away, she said “It (education) will always be needed. So, you (parents) have to be more sincere towards education. I request you to pay attention to where your children go and what they do.”
Sheikh Hasina also advised the unsuccessful students of this year’s examinations to prepare themselves for next year. “I would say to the students who failed that there is nothing to be disappointed.
