Dear @Jinx_Takeo ,

 

It must be so difficult to constantly feel a lack of acceptance and support from your mum. It sounds like a tough place to be in, especially when being told that an A- is 'disappointing'. 

 

While some families acknowledge the effort one has put in, others want to see a 'perfect' grade. Do you think the way she is seeing this is a response to the expectations of her when she was growing up?

 

Also, have you ever tried speaking to your mum and explaining how you are feeling about the way she reacts? This article - how to get parents to really listen to you, may be helpful if you feel you are able to open this conversation to her.

 

We're hearing you, and want you to know you are not alone.
