Hi everyone! I need some advice. So, my parents are being really paranoid about my grades. I have a B+ in one class and an A- in another (which isn’t even that bad) but my parents are constantly yelling at me to improve my grades. I have ADHD and anxiety, AND I’m taking advanced classes, so I feel like they are pushing me too hard (they want me to get 100% in all my classes). What should I do?

I am sorry you're going through this! Just know that everything will be ok! Maybe softly tell your parents how you don't like the way they are yelling, and how you feel pressured. Something I do when I feel stressed is meditate, its a great way to let go of your negative emotions! You can just play some meditation music on Youtube, or do a guided meditation, it helps a lot! Hope you're doing ok!

Thanks!

When parents scold you, you listen to them and get advice. If you want to change something then say it aloud. In this situation, you can say " I would love to inprove my grades, but please allow me to have some free time and do what I need to do." Or "I know you want me to get 100% in all my classes, just please let me have a time for myself."

Tell them how you feel about how they are yelling at you. I'm so sorry you are going through that @artkid

Thanks for the advice!
