Alright, this is the thing. I HATE my highschool. Really, HATE it. So I've been pretty much miserable, which is why I've been skipping alot, and now I found out..because of this, I might not graduate. Now you'll probably never understand my culture, but there's nothing more important than education, My father has said it straight to my face "I don't care abotut your happiness, as long as you get into a GREAT university, and have straight A's" and last night he said "Go study! If you have any B's this year, I'll be really dissapointed, and you won't be my daughter!" And when I tried to tell him how dumb that is he said "I've only ever asked you for ONE thing in your life, and that's good grades, just that one thing..I think it's reasonable to ask you to do good in that" or something along those lines. I'm so scared :S and the thing is, since I've feared my father basically my whole life, I've never told him th truth about my grades, my mom has covered up for me, and told him I get straight A's even though I don't. And we were going to do that this year too, but now we can't..because I might not graduate. I can't stop crying, because it seems like there's no solution..I can not get anyone else involved, I can't ask my mother to help me anymore..I just can't. And I CAN NOT talk to my father, it's just not in my culture. So please..don't suggest any of those things. But..what can I do? Is there anything? Please help me :'(
Thank you!
Your father might feel this way, but you do need to do what's best for you. Obviously skipping school isn't the answer, but we all have our bad days. Don't keep doing it though, it can lead to more problems, as you've already found out.
If you want to make all A's, do a semester of summer school. It really isn't as bad as it sounds and it will probably make you feel better. If you don't want to do that, study more, go in for tutorials, get a tutor, take extra classes. Prove to your teachers that you KNOW you messed up.
If you want to, you should stand up to your father. If what he wants for you isn't what you want, you shouldn't have to suffer for it too. I can see why he wants you to do well, education is important, but you need to be happy also.
Try not to worry about it. I know that right now that seems almost impossible, but the more time you spend worrying about it, the less time you're doing something about it!
Talk to your counselour and see what he/she can do with your credits. Everything will work out in the end!
Good luck!
