@Wubbrle-the-Wubble Thanks

If someone wants another to put effort into doing better and doing good things, they need incentives. Just like you discipline someone for doing something bad to teach them they shouldnβt do it, you need to reward someone for doing good to teach them to do it more.
Pavlovβs dog experiment; ring the bell before the meal, and they will expect a meal every time they hear a ringing bell.
Give a dog a treat for doing something and theyβll do that something more.Iβve told you in the past to talk to your mother about these things, and I believe you should inform her of what Iβm saying in this particular post.
-
@Namira Thatβs what Iβm saying.
For the good things I do, hence bringing my grades up, I should get a brake from the βGood. Now bring up this class.β
-
This is so stupid. Yβknow, she should be PROUD of you for getting good grades, since thatβs what matters. a βCβ in an otherwise big shower of Aβs and Bβs shouldnβt in theory be a big deal, and heck, C is not that bad either when you think about it.
I hate these types of parents and people in general who make big deals about the wrongs/bads about people but completely disregard the goods. Iβm gonna say it myself, good job for trying your best, because thatβs all that matters. -
@A38 FINALLY SOMEONEβS SAYING THIS.
LIKE FR SHE SHOULD BE PROUD OF HER GETTING DECENT AND GOOD GRADES.
100% true.

κ§βββ¦πππππ’ππ ππππβ¦β βκ§ Itβs hard when parents have so much expectations since you cant just tell them to stop. I am sorry your mom is so much. Maybe you can talk to a teacher about your situation with your mom and how you feel stressed about getting your grades up. Maybe if they see youβre trying really hard for your mom to be satisfied, theyβll help you.
