You should try to talk to them & tell them a B isn't all that bad and at least you aren't failing your classes. [ xo_underneath's advice column | Ask xo_underneath A Question ]

Parents pick on you because they know that you can do much better and they think that you're not putting enough effort into getting an A. They yell at you so they can push you into working harder on getting a better grade. For some reason, my own parents believe that a B is just average and an A is an excellent or whatever. Overall, itz cause of overexpectations but I agree that they should be happy that you're passing, and getting a B isn't the end of the world. Don't worry about it, parents always think we should do better. [ Peachgirly's advice column | Ask Peachgirly A Question ]
