Do you approve of the academic pressures placed upon very small children in India?

Let us benchmark, instead. Comparing one's own child with the norm-chart starts very early in life. Two months after birth, the baby gets weighed, measured, etc.. and the pediatrician tells the mummy that she had been a terrible parent. And look at the chart where the baby ought to have been. The inner tiger (or a helicopter) is roused. After that, there is no respite for the child or the parents. Those who didn't compare had just given up, or they got worn out by the first few. That is all there is to it.
