Ok, for the people that get good grades, like straight as and bs or whatever you and your parents consider good... doesnt it seem like we still have all these restrictions, like we cant go to parties and etc. etc. but all the failing people get to, well not get to always, but go to parties and go to the mall by themselves, etc. etc. But we get praise from our parents, but no privlages. Do you find that ironic?

maybe their parents don't put enough pressure on them / care about their grades.
so theyre failing courses ---> and their parents don't care ---> so they can party and do whatever the hell they want. it all adds up. |

Oh hey, I never thought of it that way. Good reason  And bleh I neglected the "don't you find that ironic?" part. Yea I do find it ironic.. But hey, in the future we'll be able to party all we want instead of working 12+ hour shifts at a dead-end job and never getting to party. I have the future to look forward to. I guess that's what keeps me going, even with all the pressure. |

I guess that's what keeps me going, even with all the pressure. Yea. i keep thinking about going to school and becoming a lawyer and getting A LOT OF MONEY!!! QUOTE I made good grades, never snuck out, never lied, and I wasnt trusted with anything. I like, got in trouble if I gave my friend (who lives a bloack away) a ride home from school with me. But 2 of my best friends; one that snuck out and got caught on a regular basis, and the other who smoked weed like...24-7 and smelled like it every time he came home, were allowed to do so many things. I mean, I wasnt even allowed to be on the phone after 9:30 til I turned 18 cuz they thought I was planning something...ugh. I never got rewarded for being a really well behaved kid. I don't get it. I should have been the one with privaleges...but its like I was being punished for what other stupid kids were doing. I know!! I try really hard in school and i got and A in math, i had Ds last year and my parents say 'im really proud' and i was like jumping off the walls i was so happy! its like 'well i've never broken the law, done drugs, sunck out, didnt come home for a couple of days, so will you PLEASE let me go to the mall with my friends. Dont worry, we wont get kidnapped' (<----- my parents worst fear... no joke  )No, im not jealsous of all these people that get to do all that stuff, i just find it ironic. |
