show it to ur mom. its better to show her now than for her to find out later from someone else. even tho u may get grounded it is the right thing to do..good luck!

Well, I would be honest with my parents. Honesty is the best way to go. Just be grown up about it. I have made bad grades before and I showed my parents them. Tell them you know you could have done better and that next time you will try harder. Tell them that you can pull up the grade, and try REALLY hard to impress them on the next one. I HOPE I helped you. ~Kimberly~

Been there, done that. You know i know you and everyone else doesnt want to hear this but "Honesty really is the best policy" forging it isnt going to help. Just tell your mom your sorry and that you`ll try harder. Your mom is proud of you no matter what and if it comes with a lecture, dont fight back just agree with everything she says. Trust me, arguing back is not the way to go. I`ve learned that the hard way. Hope i helped.

I'm not going to tell you not to forge, but I will tell you that if you are already stressed and freaked about getting caught in a dishonest act that you are thinking about committing, just realize that once you go through with it, the stress and pressure will still be there and you will also be carrying around the additional pressure of "am I gonna get caught" for quite awhile.


You are the only one who can decide which way to go, but, in my opinion, dealing with the repercussions of the bad grade now, might be better than stressing and fretting about being dishonest, only to get caught later and have to deal with the repercussions of the grade and the dishonesty.


On the other hand, you might do it and get away with it. But if you do, I wouldn't suggest making it a habit because keeping track of multiple lies and having to remember who you've lied to and what about gets to be a exhausting. (Just a thought.) Good luck to you.


Kind wishes,

ah i hate to say it but honesty is best iknow its tough i hate wen i get bad grades, i mean everyone does. If u need to get it signed try tellin her something positive about ur school work first to loosen her up like "o btw i got a 90" on this or something and then b like o yeah i didnt do so well on this but ill try harder next time n study more. That should work, ive tried that a few times and my mom wasnt as mad as she would b if i shoed her the bad grade first.

I know what your going through but I have that problem in algebra.(hate it) But in spanish I'm great, I speak it fluently. But you have to show the paper to your mom. Honesty is everything! :)
It will clear your concinous and your mom will never think your hiding something from her if you show it her. Just come clean :) and **STUDY*** your spanish! ;)

I would tell my mother the truth because, forging is really terrible . You could get into a load of trouble, and I'm not just talking grounding . If you do get away with this forging, it's more likely that you'll have a guilty conscience . You'll feel terrible , but you'll get over it . EITHER WAY THE TRUTH IS EXPOSED IN THE END . It always comes beck to bite you in the .... That's just the way it is .
