You're supposed to get good grades. For them, that would be normal, and bad grades are not.

I am a parent that doesn't freak when my kids get bad grades, if I know they have done their best. Now, if one grade has been an "A" the whole time and then there is a "D" or "F" then I do take notice. I don't take it as being a failure but as a warning flag that we need to do better. I definitely care about the grades they make in school whether it is an A or a F.

Well, they are right to be concerned or upset when your grades are bad, but they should also tell you, in some way, that they are proud when your grades are good.
Some people have this crazy idea that kids will become "conceited" or compliments will "go to their head". It is not true! Everyone needs to know when they are doing a good job!

Parents should practice immediate feedbacks with their children, whether it's negative or positive. Positive reinforcements are good for a child and helps to develop more self confidence. This is an area all of us can do more with everyone around us... It allows us to express our appreciation of their good act/behavior or grades in this case.

It's sad that you don't feel like your parents are giving you your congrats for your good grades.
Maybe you should talk to them about it. Tell them you don't feel like they are being supportive.
My parents used to give us $10 for every A we got. We didn't get anything for Bs. And we had to pay them for Cs and Ds. We didn't even discuss Fs. It worked out really well. I was extra motivated to do well because I could get as much as $70 at the end of every semester. Propose that idea to them, and see what they think.
Good luck to you, and I, for one as a college instructor, hope you get more good grades!

Its not that they don't care. Thats just what they expect of you I guess. You're "supposed to" get good grades. Maybe thats why it may not seem like a big deal.

parents expect you to make good grades because they know you can. when you get a bad grade that expect more because they want what's best for you.

Because, you are expected to get good grades. Failing to do so is the problem.

When you get bad grades they have something to worry about. When you get good grades they have nothing to worry about.
