How would you react to your child bringing home bad grades?

Get to the root of the problem and fix it. If you can't help them get them a damn tutor. I tutor kids and just today I was telling this little girl who's a bit of a badass and really rude to her mom that she's very lucky that her mother was so proactive and gave enough of a fukk to get her extra help when she needed it.

My grades in the beginning of second grade were horrible because my mom didn't speak English and my dad wasn't that great at it. Every problem they helped me with I got wrong. :mjcry:

Dominicans. They're both fluent now even though my mom doesn't like to speak it. My dad even got his GED later in life. But back then, it was a struggle breh.

Even with all those struggles you still became that dominican goddess that you are, kind and caring with other people's bad ass kids.

I'm not big on grades but my wife is a beast, I think she pushes our son too hard academically. She gets mad at me all the time for being lax with him.

Anything under an A wont be acceptable. There are also other intellectual and physical standards he must adhere to.

It shouldn't have gotten that far where the parent was surprised by a bad grade. Education is a partnership between parents and educators. Parents fault for not getting updates, feedback and communicating with the teacher about the child's struggle in class.

:hug:That shyt takes patience tho. Generally, I don't even like kids so when I tell people that I tutor they're all like :why: But idk, it makes me happy when a dumb child gets slightly less dumb and they realize the progress they've made themselves. :obama: Builds their self esteem, improves their attitude, makes them look forward to school etc. It's great man. Now I see why some people become teachers. I could never do it tho

I guess failing is a bad grade and honestly i'd just :yeshrug:

I was a terrible student, not because I didn't understand the work because I did very well, I was just too lazy and too busy being the class clown, something my parents never were, so when it happens to my kids I'll probably understand where it comes from, when they're younger there's prolly gonna be some punishments or whatever just because you can't encourage that kind of behavior but after 9th grade, that shyt is on them not me
