No force. Children should be encouraged to do their best and given as much help as possible to do their best. That doesn't mean doing their homework for them, but reinforcing the lessons taught in class.
Parents should be mentors, tutors, and cheerleaders for their children. And yes, this is the approach I have taken and it has worked pretty well.

1st of all you can't force anyone to score a particular way on an exam, you can however expect a certain outcome, this should bebased soley upon the individuals capabilities. I think that (kids, teens, young adults) don't fully grasp the consequences of education whether it be for good or bad it definitely plays a MAJOR role in your adult life and that should be the point made over & over again. As long as you give 110% you've done your best. Our intelligence shouldn't be based upon some score rather it should be an accumulation of effort, the ability to learn from mistakes, and courage to try again that enables us to learn and grow from every experience not just a final exam. I ask you this what do you remember from any exam in high school? Exactly. With all that said don't expect a career as some top notch attorney with a C average so based upon your goals you need to decide how much to give of yourself, there is an A in all of us how hard do you want to work for it is really the question.

Not at all. Patents should guide instead. Force cannot work permanently for better progress of their kids.
Let the kids understand the importance of high grades in the examination and therefore , the most important role of parents are to be a good GUIDE then a this forceful activities !
Then only kids can be motivated innerly and i am sure it works better then your expectation !
I have checked it and implemented as well !
And obtained very good results from the kids !!

Parents should always encourage and help their children to score well on exams and do well in school. We live in a society where education means everything and should be taken very seriously. If you are not an adult you don't yet realize how hard life can be if you do not have the ability to make a decent paycheck and in order to make that decent paycheck you have to have knowledge and schooling behind you. I have plenty of knowledge but little schooling behind me and this makes finding a job that pays according to my abilities pretty much impossible.
I know you younger people are tired of hearing adults tell you this all the time along with it really is for your own good but it really is. On the other hand sometimes as a parent we get carried away and force too much on our children. Please understand when a parent does that it is because we only want the very best for you. If you are having problems getting the grades that your parents want you to get and you truly are trying and still can't get those grades it is time to try and sit down and talk to them. See if maybe they can get you a tutor to help your grades and abilities approve. Before you do this though make sure you really are doing the work to the best of your ability.
I can not tell you how important it is to get a good education in High School and then go on to College. I know that it is more fun to be playing and chatting with your friends but you want to give yourself the ability to do that for the rest of your life. If you don't have a good education behind you then you will either end up starving or working two or three jobs just to make ends meet later in life. Trust me you will prefer one job that pays well and gives you the ability to have more money to spend on yourself besides just having enough for your everyday bills.
If you are one of the few kids that are expected to get all high scores and are not given help to reach those scores, I feel for you. You can not do a job without the proper tools. Try to tell your parents that they wouldn't try to change a tire with a butter knife so please please please don't expect you to get all high scores all the time without help of some kind.

You cannot make a kid get high scores. They can only get what they are capable of getting. You and incurage them to do their best and let them know that you are their for them if needed and support them no matter what grade they get. When a parent tries to force a kid to do better in school you are going to get a kid that is going to shut you out. Some kids are not going to get high grades because they are doing the best they can do and that is just the way it is going to be. Parents need to get a grip on themselves. Support your kid. Because in reality when you try to force kids to get what you want you are being a Bullie. So what is that teaching kids?

dear friend,
kids are very sensitive. deal them gentle is the best remedy to get them on track.
if any parent really want his son to study than they should see that they implement the thing on the child right from his/her nursery. it often happens that parents let the child do anything he likes in his/her very young years and then when they become big the forcing to study hard to put.
it is always of no use, it in turn produces a kind of resistance. the child shall think that their parent have no other work than saying that.
yes, parent should encourage their child to score good marks, by giving examples of great personalities, famous person and also by asking their ambitions. if they say they want to become a pilot, you should tell thwem the kind of study they should do for it.
YOU should Never ever compare your child with his/ her friends, or say to them, "see, your friend how much they have scored!"
that discourages the cild and they think that they can never over take them. unfortunately 90% of the parents do this.
one should encourage their child to score good marks but by making them realise that it is only for their good future. the best way to make them do this is to put a timetable for them, which should be followed strictly. you can be tough in this matter.
this will bring a habit in the child to study.
bye, best of luck

Everyone has a particular potential which primarily depends upon their IQ and is unique to each.Parents should try to fully utilise this potential by inspiring and motivating them.They should be guided properly by their parents to their path to success and that is very important
I personally know of a relative who was brillant in studies and aspired to be an engineer but his parents forced him to take up medicine for they felt that he wud b the only one in their family 2 b a doctor and now he is a total wreck.He hardly practises and suffers from chronic depression.
Parents should not confuse their own dreams with that of their children and should b very practical,
not hash or mild in treating them .And good grades doesnot mean that a person is a good human being or that he/she knows more than others.The ultimate goal should be to acquire knowledge and above all to be a good human being whose contribution would be helpful to others ;the rest should shape up accordingly.

No because it always puts too much pressure on the kids. A lot of people I know who were forced to get good grades went through a great deal of depression.

You can't really force them to get high scores, but you can make them study and prepare to the best of their ability.
Once they are taking the test, the parent really no longer has control. But it is a good thing to make sure they study hard.

No. The child should realize his own goal and career options. The parents should only guide their kids and hope for the best and not force the child to work more than his capacity and ability.
