Regarding the statement "failing is fine" - again it depends on how you define "failing". A "C" or "D" grade for some is a great achievement and yet for others they may feel it is less than satisfactory...again it depends on what your beliefs are and the rules you have consciously (or subconsciously) written for yourself. Your examples have really highlighted the differences we all have about this topic and how well meaning parents can also pass on their beliefs about learning, success and failure. Good luck for the future and keep on contributing to the VCE help community. Thanks again. Cheers, Heath Rida,
