Mothers always want the best for us. Read both situations carefully. These situations happened to me while I was growing up. What about you? Hahaha.

When my mother found out I did not get good grades
What happened to your result? Look at all your cousins, they are doing really well. They studied hard, and you?

When I told my mother I got good grades and also told her that my cousins did not.
Stop comparing yourself with others. What matters the most is your own achievement, not others.

So anybody else experienced this? Hahaha. Thank you Ma. It's because of those critics that I stand tall today :)
