You did a great job!! Sorry to hear about what he is saying to you. You still need to respect him though, he is your dad.

You have EARNED straight A's on your report card!! Wow, amazing....
If your dad cannot comprehend the value of your efforts, there is not much you can do to change his thinking. The issue on many levels are his, not yours.
The hard truth is, your dad is not going to be the source from which you can gain confidence in your performance at school. You have two options. One is to become very hardened and bitter towards him. The other is to look directly at how deeply he is hurting you and forgive him.
The most powerful resource that God gives us is the ability to forgive. You can read about it in the NY Times best seller of all time, The Bible.
I know a young man who did this as a lifestyle and the rewards have been huge for him. He earned a full scholarship all the way through graduate school to the University of Notre Dame. He was able to learn much more easily because he was unhindered by rage and bitterness. His dad was extremely harsh throughout life and has EARNED for himself a broken life while my friend has earned a very wholesome satisfying life, including a satisfying paycheck as well..
Be smart. Do well in school but get praise from your mother or your teachers or anyone who can see the value of your work. Get a mentor who has qualities that you admire. Get praise from those who can really give it. ..not from your dad who obviously can't or wont...
Your dad may pull through and perform beautifully in other situations, like in emergencies or when you're in a pinch...but not so good when things are going well...
It is ideal when dad's pull through for us. Some dad's don't realize until they are much older, the mistakes they've made. Forgiveness believe it or not, helps the forgiver more than the forgiven.
Does this help?

Yes, you did great, and your dad is really proud of you too, he's just being a little overly strict and trying to push you to exceed. Sometimes they forget to tell you how much they love you, but if he didn't love you, he wouldn't care what grades you got. Maybe some time when you are alone and he's in a good mood, bring up the subject that it hurts your feelings a when he is so tough on you. Hey, and at least he doesn't beat you like my dad did me. you did really really great in school by the way...congratulations!!!

if an A stand for 75% you're good coz you passed the subject
If an A - stand for 85% you're doing good keep it up
If an A+ stand for 90 % you're above satisfactory just little more effort
If an A++ stand for 95% you're a genius coz you're almost perfect.
Show (not tell) your Dad that you're already at higher level of your class and, you're not a genius. If he still wants you to excel in your studies, discuss/plan how he can support you to accomplish your goal, that is, if you're willing to make that also your goal as a student.

Congratulation's on the grades. I think that maybe he wasn't good in school so he's jealous. Or maybe this is how his parents acted with him. Just try to talk to him and let him know that this isn't right. He has anger issues that need professional help, it's not right the way he's treating you. But don't let anyone discourage you,keep getting good grades, and try to seek help for him. Good luck.

Well I don't know what your fathers problem is, but I would be very proud of you if you were my child, Keep up the good work, Some parents are very hurtful, and I am sad for you, good luck with your future, and remember this so you don't do the same to your own kids someday

THE ONLY SLOW PERSON IS YOUR DAD. APPARENTLY
HE DOESN'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A'S AND F'S. YOU ARE A VERY GOOD STUDENT AND DON'T YOU FOR-
GET. YOUR DAD NEEDS TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL TO
LEARN. HE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT REPORT CARDS AND
GRADES. DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT A THING, YOU HAVE
GOOD GOOD GRADES AND NO ONE WILL PUT YOU DOWN.
IGNORE HIS STUPIDITY, BY THE WAY WHERE IS YOUR MOM
WHY IS SHE NOT STICKING UP FOR YOU? YOU NEED TO
TELL YOUR MOM HOW YOU FEEL.

Your dad's being a little bastard he should be proud of you. Straight A's is still straight A's even if its not A+ 's. You did a great job by the way!
Best of wishes,
*Soccer Fan*
Merry Christmas!

Read your own paragraph and then tell me how you got straight A's. Do they teach English or Grammar in your school? Maybe if you took the time to proofread your own work those A's would be A+'s.
