[Silent Middle School Entrance Exam] The one thing we kept to ensure our child's middle school entrance exam journey ended peacefully
There is one thing our family kept to ensure our child's middle school entrance exam journey ended peacefully.
It was the summer of fifth grade when our child decided on their own to take the middle school entrance exam.
At that time, the one thing we decided as a family was:
Do not tell anyone about the middle school entrance exam until it is over, we have been accepted, and we report it to the elementary school.
Do not tell anyone about the middle school entrance exam.
Neither the parents nor the child told anyone, and even after the results were in, we asked the homeroom teacher not to mention it to others until the very last moment.
In the end, there was no one else at the local elementary school our child attended who was taking the middle school entrance exam.
Because neither the child nor the parents told anyone, both I and my child were able to focus on ourselves and our family.
I am glad we didn't tell anyone.
I still think so even now.
