Teach them a lesson. Screw up, and blame it on them so they feel the pang of guilt:)  |

Yeah, I'll try my best, but my best just doesn't seem good enough for them.  |

Velvet all you can do is to be true to yourself..You do what you know you can do..dont worry about anyone else..they are not in your shoes...I sure do understand them being very proud of you though! LOL...I would be too! You have obviously worked hard to get where you are today, and you too should be VERY proud of that! Dont worry about trying to impress anyone else..This is your life and what you do with it, and how you make it is up to you...Obviously you are already on the right track! xoxo  |

Before you leave for college, ask your parents if you can talk to them about college. Tell them that you have every intention of putting in 100%, but that you are concerned that it won't be enough for them. And that you worry that you'll let them down because of it. I'm sure, if you approach them the right way, they will hear what you are saying, and take stock of how they have been putting too much pressure on you. I wish you all the best for college, and hope that your parents can see and understand your feelings. Take care.  |

wow...I'm in college myself, and I have btw seen young teenagers such as yourself enrolled in the university setting. I think they might be pushing you a little too much. Do want you want to do, say what you want say, act how you want to act. If you feel you aren't ready yet, then there should be no pressure to tell them you need some time off and to think things over because you certainly don't want to spend five or six years at college figuring out what you want to do, meanwhile trying to live up to their expectations of doing well. College is manageble, it's just not easy. An A in highschool is like a C in college. I would sit down and have a talk with your mom and dad, and share your thoughts and anexities about going. In the end, the decision of going will be squarely on your shoulders. Dave  |

And that's not a selfish act. You may want to be sure everyone else is happy and satisfied but you have to take care of yourself first so you can better take care of others. |
