 If you are a Parent... Please don't ever make your Child feel depressed like this.  During my School Days, I came home with the Mark Sheet showing 90 marks scored by me in an exam, hoping to get compliments from my Dad.  However, once my Dad took a glance of it, he said I added the 0 on the Mark Sheet to make it 90 and beat me a lot.  I told him honestly that I didn't add the 0 but he wouldn't believe me.  I felt so depressed that my Dad did not believe me that I did not add the 0 .... and till date don't know why my Dad kept saying I added the 0. Actually I added the 9! 😂 Source: received through WhatsApp message
