Whenever i hear stories from my friends of their struggle to get their kids into a good school, i just find myself dumbfounded. Why is it so tough? Why are there so less schools? In
The interview of parents sound like saying that if parents are not smart enough, the children does not have the right to a good school; he may or may not be bright. I may agree to the parents interview, but what about the interview of the small children.. They get so much tensed. I read a story in TOI about kids who run low fever and stop talking because of all these pressures. I see parents trying to Cramp the ABCD and 1,2,3,4 in the heads of a 2 yr old, so that by the time he/she is 3, he clears the interview in some school.
Why should getting the children to a good school be a Herculean task???

It is so horrifying to get admission for your child in Delhi. I believe it is us and not the schools who are at guilt. We, as parents, in fear of our own child not getting admission fail to raise the concern or take it to the courts. Such behaviour has only helped these demons in school called administrators to take undue advantage of the middle class man. Our whole society is so corrupt that everyone in their heart knows that they can get away with murder also by paying some money. Some of you might be working in Government org. and doing the same kind of things to others so why feel bad. There are only 2 choices in life: Accept the things as they are or take the responsibilty of changing them.
