Morale booster: Karnataka parents cut cake after son fails SSLC exam

Bagalkot: Parents and family members cut a cake for Avinash (name changed), who failed in the SSLC exams, to boost his morale and to instill self-confidence in him. They told him to try again.

The boy, who had failed in all six subjects in the SSLC examinations, was upset.

The parents said, "During his childhood, our son’s feet were burnt in an incident and his memory power was affected. Due to this, our son was not able to write the exams."

"Exams are not the final stage in life. We have encouraged him to try again,” they added. 

The student said, “I was very upset because I failed. All my family members, including my parents, encouraged me. They cut a cake and encouraged me. I will try again. Even if I fail the exam, I will succeed in the exam of life”.
