i hate progress reports. it's like a tradition now...every three weeks comes the time when i get yelled at or in some form of trouble because of this peice of paper that comes in the mail. it's getting worse, too. they started sending emails every so often whether i'm doing bad or not, but it doesn't matter because my parents still notice that we got a progress report in our email and so they're like "did you see the new email we got today?" in a voice like *do you know what you've done wrong now, because we do* . i've never truly understood the concept of contacting parents with every little detail of your life while you aren't at home. like in elementry school when you pinched someones arm because they stole your box of crayons, the teachers had to send a note home or some how contact your parents to notify them that your behavior is unacceptable. it just isn't good enough for them to only get us in trouble at school, but they have to make the problem into a bigger deal at home. it makes me so mad that it makes that much of a differnce in what my family thinks of me. appparently it's changed how much they trust me because i haven't done much else to lose their trust. oh well...
