A Way to Death
By Jerry Baloch
As we know, we all are facing too many
problems nowadays. The same is a case I heard yesterday, and I want to write
something about it.
Yesterday, I went to college. I was
sitting in the ground in front of my classroom because the teacher was a bit
late, so I decided to sit outside. A random girl was sitting beside me, and she
was weeping badly. I stepped forward toward her and asked her what the problem
was, and she said nothing, but her face was telling the truth.
I insisted more that she trust me, and
she told me that she was facing mental pressure because of academics and
family.
“All of them want me to get a high
score, but they don't care about me or my health, and what if I don't do well
in exams? What will happen next?”
I listened to her carefully and tried
to calm her, but she had a heavy burden on her heart and mind.
After two days, a few girls told me
that she had attempted suicide and was now in the emergency. I was shocked.
When I talked to her classmates, they told me that she had scored 79 percent,
so she became desperate and attempted suicide.
And I was thinking that, is a high
score more important than the life of a person? We know we have to study hard
for a better future, but like this, everyone is mentally disturbed and on the
way to death. What will we do with a high score when the person is no more?
Let them on their mercy

As we all see today, most of the
students are graduated but still jobless, merit holders, scholarship leaders,
but still they are worthless and have just a piece of paper with them by the
name of a successful person.
So what will happen if someone gets
average marks or fails in exams? So what? If there is life and mental health,
they can try again. What will happen if some extra fees have to be paid? But
you have your child alive.
Let them be free to live their life.
Let them be happy. Leave them free so that they can breathe openly, not under
pressure. Support them. Make them realise that average marks or failed students
can still survive; they still have a bright future.
Support them like friends, without
pressure about people gossiping. Provide them with a friendly surrounding. Ask
them to play, spend some of their time with their hobbies, and let them smile.
Students are also people, not machines
or computers that photocopy everything. Students or children have feelings. Let
their feelings stay alive.
