Supporting a Stressed Teenager During Matriculation

Matriculation can be a stressful time for teenagers as they face pressure from schools and their own internal expectations. Parents can help by creating a quiet and supportive environment at home, offering their favorite meals, and scheduling breaks for relaxation. It is important to have open conversations with the teenager to understand their individual needs and determine a manageable study schedule. Parents should also remind their teenagers that matriculation marks do not define their entire future and that there are multiple pathways to success.
