Perfect therapy for people who need help. I would like to say, I never can imagine it could be possible to heal people like that

I know how overwhelming it can feel when you're having a tough time. I offer clients a space that is non-judgemental and empathetic whilst navigating these times together.

Parents are parents. If it seems to be unfair, try to talk to them about it. If they're those kinds of parents that won't listen to you, then sadly you have to take the blunt of it, or write them a note about it, as I've found that to work with my parents (of whom don't listen to a word I say unless I force them to listen). If they are the types of parents who take time to listen, then I'm positive you can all reach a conclusion. Now, if it's a D or F we're talking about, perhaps you should try to work with them, maybe ask for a tutor for math, or just ask them for the help in schoolwork, sometimes they actually know what they're doing. If you don't want either of those options, then just study harder, and if your missing work you can turn in, do that. Bringing up your grades is probably the best way to get out of it.
Hello! I've been there. Don't stress so hard about it. Make your voice heard, and tell your parents you are struggling. They might be able to find you help, or help you themselves! If you can, see if your school offers free tutoring, or try asking a friend for help. Practice makes perfect when it comes to math, so you will have to continue to apply yourself. I struggled with algebra 2 and i let my parents know. they were so much more supportive. make sure you tell them so they know you're trying, you just need a little more help. :)

You don't have to be afraid if you cant score perfect 10 in Math or any subject. Maybe you need to put a little more effort or talk to your parents if you don't understand the concepts and shy to ask the teacher in front of everyone in the class. Your parents will be mad, just be honest and apologize and promise them to score better next time. I am pretty sure you have something about yourself that your parents would be proud of. Marks do matter but not the only thing to get mad about. Your parents want you to learn things and score good.
Just don't feel low when they yell at you or criticize yourself, I've always been an average student with bad grades in math most of the time. There's nothing to do except talking to your parents with honesty and promise to make things better.
I guess it's very common with everyone that if you get bad grades in school your parents will get mad with you. So it's better to accept the fact. Now question is what you will do now? I believe you know the answer. However I think you shouldn't stuck at same place. You have to move on, you have to make sure your parents you will try your best next time. If you able make improvements your parents will never get a chance to mad at you and they won't mad at you without having any reason. 'Cause they care about you most.
