Do These Challenges Sound Familiar?
- Struggling with Exam Stress:
The pressure of the 11+ exams can be overwhelming, leading to stress and anxiety for both you and your child. You may find yourself questioning how much preparation is enough and worrying about your child’s emotional well-being during this challenging time.
- Balancing Academic Pressure and Emotional Health:
It’s difficult to find the right balance between pushing your child to succeed and ensuring they maintain a healthy mindset. The fear of burnout and the impact of constant pressure on your child’s happiness can weigh heavily on your mind.
- Coping with Parental Anxiety:
As a parent, you want the best for your child, but the intense competition can amplify your own anxiety. This stress can spill over into your interactions with your child, affecting your relationship and their performance.
- Fear of Falling Behind:
The stakes are high, and the fear of your child falling behind or not securing a spot in a top school can be paralyzing. This fear can drive you to over-schedule tutoring sessions and create an atmosphere of constant stress in your home.
- Doubts About Your Approach:
You might find yourself questioning whether you’re doing enough—or too much. The constant second-guessing of your strategies and decisions can lead to feelings of guilt and uncertainty.
