Consultant Psychiatrist Dr.Rumy Ruban yesterday highlighted the importance of keeping a close tab on students who do not show positive results at school examinations and said it is the responsibility of parents to refrain from discouraging them for not receiving sufficient results at examinations.

Referring to the just released Grade Five scholarship examination results, Dr.Ruban said the behaviour and the mental situation of children who were unable to get sufficient marks at the examination should not be negatively repeated by parents or teachers over and over again as it will badly affect to their minds.

He warned parents of such children that they should also refrain from comparing the results obtained by other children with the low marks obtained by their children as such a situation will also badly affect to the minds of their own children psychologically.

He said under a such situation parents should encourage their children to get involved in education, extra-curricular activities and sports activities as it will also immensely help them to get rid of from mental stress.Dr.Ruban also asked parents to encourage their children always and refrain from discouraging them over their exam results.

He further asked parents to take their children for picnics and pleasure trips as it is the only remedy to recover the children from various illnesses.Dr.Ruban also asked parents whose children are suffering from various mental illnesses to seek medical advices from experts.
