A principal from Noida, India, expresses concern over the trend of parents transferring their children from local schools to those in Delhi during crucial Class 11 and 12 years. She emphasizes that these transitions are not merely academic changes but significant upheavals that can adversely affect students' emotional and academic stability. Many students, previously thriving, struggle to adapt to new environments, losing their focus and direction. The principal recounts the story of a bright student who, after transferring, became more of a 'poster boy' than a dedicated learner, ultimately not achieving his original academic goals. She highlights a broader issue of diminishing resilience among students, who are quick to give up when faced with challenges. The principal has responded by doubling the number of counselors in her school to support students better. She questions the intent behind such transfers, pondering whether in the quest for better opportunities, parents may overlook the importance of stability and belonging in a child's development.
