OK, but that doesn't answer the question of how to teach kids to deal with stress/anxiety. I agree that placing them under stress/anxiety probably damages their learning. I still think it's vital life experience to gain before adulthood.

Moreover, with no pressure, many kids will simply not put in effort to learn. That something so common sense is now neglected is bizarre.

Good scholastic performance by students in East Asian is not because schools in East Asian countries are low-pressure academic environments.
