hot flaming take i’m abt to slap you with: it’s not acceptable to punish children for their grades, no matter the circumstances.
lost a follower for this one!
Any situation in which the grades are "bad enough to punish" is a situation in which your child is already struggling, and needs, more than anything, your support and affection.
If you punish them you will teach them nothing but how to loathe
And that their worth is dependent on what they can accomplish.
