I’ve been a child in several of the situations you describe, so I have little reason to speculate about how I would react, and I think you’re engaging this whole discussion in the worst faith possible to find much greater fault in a statement, which itself is a pretty milquetoast blanket wish for students to succeed without artificial barriers.
