Am I the only one?

Honestly, they’re probably trying their best but keeping a job and having at least one kid can be difficult. It’s more likely that they prefer to give you some independence. And trust me, you’re not the only one. My parents don’t typically push me to try harder or help me with work unless I get something below a 90 and my mother tells me I can do better (although I do push myself of my own accord, so they don’t have to). The point is that they’re allowing you to be an independent person so that you won’t be one of those sniveling brats who goes to college and complains about their parents not being there to help them. Blaming them is a waste of time that could be spent on catching up. Just try your best and you’ll do fine! ^_^
