Answer 1

I think you need to respect your dad more and maybe he will respect you.I would say in a sweet tone after getting him a nice drink "Daddy,I really dont want to get introuble again,so ,becuase you don't fell good and can't help me with my project,can I have come over and help me with my project?"

Answer 2

Wow. First of all, let me remind you... YOU are the one with the unsatisfactory grades. You know, if you didn't do the work, you'd probably get an 'I'. Incomplete. Not done, so can't evaluate. But F? Done but done with lack of knowledge. I'd prefer an 'I'. I hate Math while Science is still a subject I wouldn't choose over PE. It's YOUR job to study. Heck, study one hour per day and you'll see difference. I simply don't care. I take the time to bore myself to death with homework, take a drink, put low music on in the back so I can be connected to life and I'll do my homework.
Think about it, you do the work, feed your mind some good info. Sure, I'm not saying learning French is fun since you're 100% sure you're not moving to a French-speaking country But it helps you on the long run.
Hey don't give me the stare, it's your life. Your decisions. Your idea. Your dreams. Your education. Your knowledge. And again, your life!
You're dad is doing what he's basically supposed to do as a parent. I kinda regret the fact that my dad never punished me. Why? B/c I never failed, sure I lived on B's and A's, but maybe if they were a LITTLE more strict then I'd... I don't know. I'm on my road to success. I've got my goals, and I seek my path to follow. What do you want to be when you grow up? I mean, I know some teenagers, who sit on their butts every day and regret their moves. Or blame the weather or their parents for their failure. Wake Up! You're dad is just trying to help you, in some way, I bet he tried. Your answer, is right there, beside you. Please, don't ignore the right side, think again about what you're missing. Of course you won't know until it's gone. But here's your call. You ask this question. The answer is in you. Talk to your dad.
I guess you're thinking, 'Whatever, like she knows anything about me!" Well, you're right. By all you've said (typed) give me the feeling that, you're simply hating your parents. But don't blame them. If you studied a bit, you wouldn't have gotten an 'F'. And they'd be proud of you. Maybe they won't say it, but deep inside they're proud.

When you quoted "i am lucky i am on right now... he is asleep... lol' doesn't that mean that you're disobeying your father? He grounded you so you can sense your fault and at least understand that you need to change yourself. Not for him - but for YOURSELF! He's just helping you out here. It's your choice that you don't respect him, cause like you said you're on the computer and he constricted you to be. Jeez, think about it. Open your mind to all the options. There is ALWAYS - I repeat ALWAYS an option.

Well, I'm 16 years old and all I know is that 'Education - is your key to success." The more, the better.

If I've gotten you all wrong here - I apologize.

Show him that you're putting an effort in... Lots of students will say they aren't good at something when they dont want to try... If you actually are trying your hardest and you really need help, try and get into a learning assistance block at school, I did it and it has made such a big difference! There are usually 2-4 students in a class, there is one teacher and sometimes even a TA so you get plenty of help, and they can talk to your teachers for you... My teacher got some of my due dates on projects extended when I first got into the class because I was so far behind in all my other courses... It is really helpful and so worth it! I also have a tutor for math because I really struggle with algebra... and if you get a good tutor, he/she can bring an F up to a B, or at least my tutor did that for me... Possibly mention that to your dad...

I think you should throw meat at him. Meat is high in protein and delicious. Just make sure you trim the fat first because that has little nutritional value. Granted, the nutritional value of the meat won't do you any good if you just throw it at him, so I would probably eat the meat. Don't eat it raw though or you might get sick, and that will only make you angrier. So you should definitely cook it. I would suggest grilling it outside if you can because that's delicious. Once you finish cooking the meat until it is brown on the outside yet still juicy on the inside, you can go ahead and eat it. Once you finish eating the meat you should feel better. I hope this helps.

Answer 5

I think that he just wants you to do the best you can and I really don't believe you were when you got that grade. Believe me you may not think school is so important now but you will find out you should have tried harder or maybe just try harder now so you don't have to regret it. You are actually extremely lucky that your parents care so much about your grades my parents didn't care that much and I regret not studying the best I could have back then so go tell him Happy Father's Day and thank you for caring so much about his daughter's future

Answer 6

As a parent he isn't being unfair. It seems that this probably isn't the first time you got a bad grade in these subjects. If they are hard for you then you have to work extra hard. The phone, the computer, and likely your friends are what you need to get the grades up.

If you don't get it then you ask your teachers for extra help, if that isn't an option then you ask a class mate that does get it to help you.

Answer 7

As a parent...I tihnk your dad is is in the right for grounding you,taking your cell,etc away and whatever else..Your failing classes, and so now you have to face the consequences.It is up to you to find out your assignments,what needs to be done to complete them,etc.I guess you need to quit playing around and buckle down and do your homework.It's time to grow up and do what needs to be done!Good Luck!By the sound of it...you need it!

Answer 8

Well... you'll get over it eventually. Don't be too mad. He just wants the best for you. Try acting really nice (say happy fathers day and give him a hug and say you'll work harder in subjects that you struggle in) then he might reduce your grounding length. Don't get caught on the computer. Good Luck!

Answer 9

Isn't school already out?

Ask your counselor for a tutor. He or she should be able to help you out.

Your dad is simply trying to show you the grown up world...that you WILL receive consequences for your actions.

No, it doesn't feel fair, but you will do the same when you have kids.

Answer 10
