MSK Prasad urges parents to encourage children’s talents
Addressing a gathering, the former Indian cricketer says every child is unique and should not be compared with others
Former Indian cricketer Mannava Sri Kanth (MSK) Prasad urged parents to encourage their children's talents instead of pressuring them during the annual sports day celebrations titled ‘Sports Spectra 2026’ at Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s Sri Venkateswara Vidyalaya in Tirupati. The theme of the event, ‘Sprint to Success’, highlighted the importance of developing individual talents.
Prasad emphasized that every child is unique and should not be compared with others, stating that they must be allowed to learn and grow naturally. Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s principal D. Padmaja underscored the role of sports and games in shaping a student's overall personality, stating that the true reward lies in the character built through striving, perseverance, and sportsmanship.
Honorary director and treasurer N. Satyanarayana Raju affirmed that the school gives equal importance to academics and games, fostering holistic development, and urged students to maintain balance in success and failure, facing life with courage and composure.
