“The lesson of report cards, grades, and tests is that children should not trust themselves or their parents but should instead rely on the evaluation of certified officials. People need to be told what they are worth.” --- John Taylor Gatto
The sad reality is that instead of kids in their formative years be allowed to discover their true and unique potentials, examination is rather used to manipulate them to begin to doubt their capabilities and the likely end result is children with low self esteem. One of the possible reasons most people overvalue what they are not and undervalue what they are.
