Exactly Adiza.It hurts more when those immature people comment on our parents.The most irritating part is ,each time the government releases the results or z-scores those people start talking about this.In my view those who have that mentality is the ones with small children who haven't even completed their O/L's or A/L's and some teachers or educational people in school level who doesn't have much exposure
