The Day I Realized The Truth (title of essay)

Oh, that was easy. On Top of family heroes (A Star Wars Story), I picked “The Family Hero”. Many

psychologists refer to this child as “The Golden Child.” What is a child who can do no wrong? When it is loved, it is commended and loves with no consequence.

This is one of the sentences from the essay that I took from the words. Why can “is” not be use as a past tense (like “was” praised by the family) as the verbs are gone tense?

The child was the star child and still is.
