First off, those are perfectly fine grades. It’s a big step up in work load from HS to college, and your family’s straight As expectation are not realistic. Don’t listen to what “people say” about gen eds.
Do you have a career center at your school? I wonder if they can help you identify a major/classes that you would enjoy? Have you ever done personality and/or interest inventories? There are tools to help you pinpoint what you like.
How are you studying? Reviewing? Retaining the material you learn is definitely something that you need to be able to do. (But again, you have a perfectly respectable GPA, especially for a freshman).
Collaborative learning is a life skill and you need to show up and do the work. Real life employment always involves collaboration with other people.
What have you done to find a job? How many applications have you sent out? Have you walked into businesses with help wanted signs, ready with your resume? (Your school’s career center should also be able to help you put together a resume if you need assistance).
Trade school is nothing like college.
You need to be pragmatic about your future. You will need college or trade school. School doesn’t have to be the “best years of your life,” but it will open many more opportunities.
Don’t give up! Reach out and get help from college!
