How Do I Tell My Parents I Didn

How do I tell my parents I didn't get into college?

It's not that I didn't get into college, but I didn't get into the one we both wanted to go to. I applied to the University of Texas at Austin and Rice University. I'm fairly smart and when I got accepted to UT, my parents kept telling me that they didn't want me going there and I would be fine and I would get into Rice. They've been doing that since I applied, which has been for two months now. I found out last night that I got rejected and they're going to be so incredibly upset, I don't even know what to tell them. Someone please help.

How do I tell my parents about bad grades?

Last year my sister hid her and my report card from my mom. My uncle came over the next week and my mom started talking about how bad I’ve been and how I hid my report card (i didn’t). I told them that didn’t, but of course, no one believed me. I knew where my sister hid the report cards so I went upstairs to retrieve them. Then my mom started lecturing me about my bad grades. I had one C, and she knew how much I put to get it there. Our teacher wasn’t the best, and it was hard to get a C. But, of course, my mom didn’t care and started to complain about how I never do my work (I spent around 3 hours doing my homework on weekdays). I was so upset because no one believed me and no one understood how much stress I was going through. I was looking down at my hands the whole time and every time I looked at my mom I gave her the occasional stink eye. I also shot a few at my uncle for believing her. Because of my stink eyes, I guess he believed my mom’s lies of me being a disrespectful kid. I was so angry because no matter how hard I tried, people were still expecting more from me.My sister had a D but of course, no one said anything about that.If your parents aren’t like this, then I think you should tell them as soon as you get your results, but if they’re like mine, then don’t.It’s a good thing I never told her what I got on my finals.

I think i have Autism, why didn't my parents tell me?

Probably, no one suggested you may have autism because no one suspected it. This happens especially when the symptoms are mild, or when the person is good at camouflaging their symptoms. I wasn't diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, a mild form of autism, until I was 17. My parents had considered autism when I was little, but not seriously. None of my teachers ever thought I had any disorder despite some obvious signs. My point is, you can't always count on the people around you to catch these things. You're not officially diagnosed, so it's not as if your parents kept information from you.

The is also the possibility that you don't actually have autism. The only way to know for sure if to be evaluated by an autism spectrum disorders specialist. If you want to be evaluated, your regular doctor or your guidance counselor can help you find a specialist in your area. Before you do anything you should talk to your parents about your concerns.

Having autism doesn't make you a freak; OCD and bipolar disorder don't make you a freak either. Your brain is just wired differently. Being different doesn't have to be a bad thing.

How do I tell my parents I'm engaged?

EDIT: My fiance asked my father beforehand. He's okay with the engagement aspect of it. I'm talking about so soon after we're 18. And to those who critize me for marrying him only when one of us have insurance: I need insurance. I have glaucoma, have had since I was 10. It can cause me to go blind. I need insurance the the numerous drops I have to take, the countless doctors visits, and the surgeries I'll need. My fiance is VERY well-aware of this fact. And yes, I would LOVE to have my own insurance. Thing is, we're both still young. I'm planning on going into Education, graduating early if at all possible, and having a career in Elementary Education. I was aksing for how to tell my mother I'm even engaged and how to tell them I plan on getting married within the next 2 years.

!!!! HELP PLZ!!!! Didn't tell my parents about i got rejected from college?

I'm really sorry about your rejections. I guess this is your first experience into adulthood and expectations.

The bottom line is that you have to suck it up and tell your parents exactly what you wrote here on Yahoo Answers. Talk to your guidance counselor with some community college plans and then truly buckle down. I have to tell you that you are not the only student out there who has slacked off in senior year. And you won't be the last either. You realize now that 'Plan A' isn;t going to work, and maybe 'Plan B' isn;t either. Since you do put a value on education, you go for 'Plan C' and then work your way back into a traditional university. Hey, I was on the 5 year college plan and I turned out alright! I also was nervous about telling my parents I failed a college course and received no credit, lot of $$$ down the drain. I had to suck it up, learn a lesson, pay for the course myself, and made Dean's List a few times after.

Life does go on, and this is a great learning experience for you.

Best of luck to you :-)

Should I tell my parents I'm dropping a class?

If you have an open relationship with your parents already, then you should probably tell them. You don't want to start ruining your relationship with them by keeping what seems to be a big secret. And yes, because of university rules, they can't find out how you're doing in your classes without your permission, so it is completely your choice to tell them.

DID you try to talk to the professor? Was it simply that the subject didn't interest you? This is college, and we have choices in college. You don't have to take things you don't like, that's why you choose a major, and why you have a lot of choices when it comes to your general education requirements. Explain to your parents that you're sorry you didn't realize the class wouldn't work out earlier (most schools you can drop a class within the first week or two and receive a full refund, yours is probably similar), but it isn't going well and you didn't want to ruin your GPA. Remember that you're an adult, and that as much as you feel you're going to disappoint your parents, there are things that would disappoint them a lot more that you AREN'T doing (like completely dropping out of school).

I know I usually sign up for 5 classes knowing that I'm going to drop one at some point because the total workload would be too much. It isn't a big deal since anything between 12-18 hours is the same flat rate, so as long as I don't wait until the withdrawal would be on my transcript, it doesn't matter. I share this openly with my parents, but it's easier, since there's isn't the money aspect you mentioned.

Your parents will probably be wondering what you're going to do with the time that you would have otherwise spent studying for that class. If you don't have a job, then yes, your mom will probably want to know why you don't just work harder at it, since you have "all the time in the world". You'll have to come up with an answer to that one on your own, but know that it will probably be a question you'll be facing.

Also: with 3 classes are you still full time? Because some insurance requires that students stay full time to receive benefits from their parents. If that's the case then you should definitely talk to your parents about that.

Good luck!

I need to shave! (face) How do I tell my parents?

I noticed I have some facial hair lately. It is kinda noticeable, and in the light you can see it on my chin, upper, and bottom lip. I have blonde hair, so from far away it doesn't look like I have much. I easily feel that I need to start, and am starting to get a little embarrassed that I have it on my face, and therefore am open to start shaving, very soon. I kinda planned on asking my dad, and know it shouldn't be too hard. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips or suggestions for this not-so-normal conversation. I don't want to teach myself either. I'm almost sure he would say yes, but I'm just nervous bringing the topic up. I keep getting comments about beard/moustache. I have also noticed that people with little to no facial hair have started shaving. Should I have started a long time ago?

I did something really bad and cant tell my parents?

there was all these link and i was clicking them off and i clicked two by accident and one said child porn and busted and the other one said granny sex and it was really disgusting i didn't mean to do it and my mom is going to think im lying and did it on purpose

Why didn't my parents told me I was circumcised?

I can't answer your question as to why your parents didn't tell you about circumcision; if you want an answer to that, you must ask them yourself I'm afraid.

I'm sorry that you do not like being circumcised; you have every right to feel the way you do. I myself hate being circumcised as do plenty of other men on here and the rest of the Internet. I noticed many of the exact same things you did. The teachers throughout all my years of school always said it was done for BS "hygiene" or "religious" reasons. The textbooks were also very elusive on this matter and didn't discuss the matter in depth. Thank goodness for the Internet that we have this knowledge.

I confronted my own parents about why they had me circumcised when I was 16, and my mother told me in a very childish tone that I had to have it done so I would "look like my daddy and all of the other little boys" and both they also told me about the BS "health benefits" circumcision supposedly yields. They basically talked down on me in a very condescending manner as if I had no idea what I was even talking about. As we argued over time, they started to understand how they knew so little about it when I seemed to have near-perfect understanding of it. How are things now years later? Complicated, they're no longer "pro-circumcision" but they still can't really accept the reality of their mistake. Things could be better, but it isn't as bad as they used to be.

I do not know much about how to properly put foreskin restoration into practice, but you seem to have a good idea of that on your own. If you haven't looked into it yet, you should really look at Foregen.

I wish you the best of luck and you may message me at anytime.

Edit: There isn't a lot of "light" on this subject because most people don't know, don't care, and don't want to talk about it. From personal experience, my parents never told me I got circumcised. I found out on my own and I learned about opposition to circumcision online. Once parents choose to go through with the procedure, they pretty much just forget about it and move on sad as that is.

One last thing, don't let these people talking down on you bother you. They got their information wrong anyway; circumcised males are *not* the world majority. All the more reason why you shouldn't listen to them.
