Similar happened with me..
I did my work experience in a residential home. Although I was quiet and nervey, and I did struggle, but I thought by the end of it I had done fairly well and felt proud of myself, I really enjoyed it there, however my report said that I lacked confidence and would do better in the future when I had gained confidence and a vocation more suited to me. I was really hurt by this. I thought why would she even put this? Is this report not destined for my record of acheivement and aimed at helping me get a job? So many things like this happened throughout my childhood and adolescence that I think I decided to never try.
