You are right. This is only my personaly opinion, but I really don't want to see students gain a rank they don't deserve. Our dojo receives 50 new children every 6 months. While every child students = profit, I personally think we can afford to lose some and focus on those who might become really good. Maybe not when they are red or blue belt, but when they gain a relativelly high rank, I have nothing against knocking it up a notch and get serious.
