Interestingly, the young boy's mother could be heard giggling in the background even as the hubby shed tears.

"I don’t care anymore, my efforts are wasted, let him struggle by himself!" the father said.

Details indicate that for the whole of last year, the dad tutored his child till midnight each day, which explains why his test results are a big disappointment to him.

Mixed reactions from social media over results

According to the youngster's mother, his grades in earlier exams have always ranged from 40 to 50 points, and 80 to 90 points.

The revelation was received with mixed reactions online as some people sympathised with the father while others found it humorous.

A cross section opined that the child's performance was a result of the father's ineffective teaching skills.

Others argued that the disastrous result was because the young boy was taught late into the night, which hampered his ability to concentrate and pay attention in class the following day.

Father should change tact, netizens advise

Everyone, however, agreed that six out of 100 marks was a disappointing score and that maybe it was a reflection of the father's numerical prowess rather than the son's.

There was also the feeling that maybe the youngster intentionally scored poorly as his silent way of protesting.

The bottomline is that the father should go back to the drawing board and find a different but more effective approach of teaching the young man.
