Today, I changed the C on my report card into a B so that I wouldn't get in trouble with my parents. I spent the entire day perfecting the B's positioning and cut exactly around the edges of the size 10 font and sliced my finger in the process. Turns out, I'm still grounded for getting a B. FML

thanks for all your imput. for the record i am in GT and AP classes and my parents expect at least a 3.75 GPA ususally. i am still currently grounded, and won't be ungrounded until i recieve a 4.0 on my report card. WHICH is technically a 5.0 with AP credit. so do not criticize my "ambition or self respect", vm2012, because I guarentee I have a better transcript than you. kthanks to everyone else for your comments! <333

Well I'm sure that "ugly ass nerd" with no life will be making more than Bill Gates while you're giving him a Big Mac and some fries.

Actually I'm not surprised that you're an AP and honor student. Contrary to popular belief, not everyone in those classes are first rate geniuses. Well unless you take AP Physics, but that's a whole nightmare in itself.

I get grounded for A-. But a B is not bad considering you're taking higher level courses.

That is insane. I'm sorry, it truly is. Your parents seem like crazy people. Who grounds their kid over a good/decent grade? I don't.....

how r u unaware of ur parents expectations did u never hand a repot card in before?

Literally wtf. I'm the New Zealand equivalent of an ap student but I wouldn't get grounded over something like grades

The american obsession with grades is astounding! If I had kids and they were getting poor 'grades' at school, I would sit down with them and find what they had trouble with and help them with it. Instead of punishing them for something that is the teachers fault.

when I get a bad grade my mom just tells me to study more over the break for a bit and if ots really bad then shell groumd me for a day or two

Even if you're in ap classes, its bullshit to be grounded for getting anything less than an a
