Read the extract below and answer the question that follows 8 distinctions proved to be not good enough
Our daughter received her matric results two weeks ago. She obtained a distinctions and an
overall average of 90%. She also obtained her national colours in hockey and athletics. She
was also the chairperson of the RCL at a prestigious school. Additionally, she even leamed
IsiZulu as a means to improve her communication skills. After popping the champagne, we
now have to dry our tears because she has not been accepted at the medical school. Her
goal was to specialise in paediatrics and that was the driving force behind the good
performance. How does one console your child in such a situation?
