In the conversation, the mother asked about her son’s progress at their school.
“Sa school kumusta ka? May problem ka ba?” the mother asked her son.
“Okay lang ma, kaso mabagal ako magsulat tsaka wala ako sa rank,” the son responded.
The mother reassures her son that his best effort is enough and that he is smart and loved. She tells him she is proud of him, regardless of his grades.
“Don’t worry, anak, sabi ko naman sayo ok lang kahit wala kang award. Ang importante ginagawa mo yung best mo at nag-aaral ka mabuti. Kung wala ka sa rank hindi ibig sabihin nun hindi ka matalino at magaling.”
“Matalino at magaling ka anak sa sarili mong paraan. Mag-enjoy ka lang sa school at wag ma-pressure, ok? Proud sayo si mama at papa palagi.” the mother added.
The son, who is visibly moved by his mother’s words, tells her that he loves her.

My inner child is crying, all this time I’ve been pressuring myself to be the best but sadly I’m just an average student.
“How I wish hindi ako nila ako pinepressure at kinocompare :(”
“Gan’to sana. hindi iyong, “anong rank mo? bakit wala? bakit si gan’to may honor?”
”Ito tlga greatest “sanaol” ko sa buhay.
“My inner child is crying. Haha, this is what I needed to hear.”
“It must have been bothering him for a long time, and your words comforted him. Great parenting.”
Many people have commented that the conversation is a reminder that children are more than just their grades and that they need love and support from their parents.
