While this situation is a good one to get a laugh out of, one must remember that putting undue pressure on any kid often backfires, with their self-esteem and confidence getting shattered in case of failure.
Parents should condition their kids in a way that they become sufficiently able to bear both outcomes of the coin of life, be it success or failure.
