[QUOTE="starwars79, post: 2003792, member: 726838"] I would say their unhappiness stems from believing you can do better. In their eyes, they may have seen further potential in homework or progress reports, and think you can do better with the final grades. Just a guess as there's no way for me to know that information. I would say they are good grades, though if my daughter kept a consistent straight B average, I would likely ask what she might be having trouble with to keep her from the A. Your parents aren't necessarily complaining, they just want you do to your best. Myself, I was an honor student, but even then, I only got straight A's a couple of times, other times were one or two B's. Ask yourself what you might be finding even the slightest bit troublesome in those B classes, and if you conquer those, you might see a straight A card. Ask or do extra credit if you have to--sometimes just a couple of points is all you need. Happy parents would be a side effect. [/QUOTE]
