Even then, success isn't guaranteed, so be ready to be disappointed by life.

I remember I used to get hit with these long sticks by the teachers if I make any mistake or wasn't paying attention, sit in the corner with both hands raised for hours, my old gameboy taken away which was never returned to me, etc.
and these parents are complaining red ink is too stressful :roll:
