12 AnswersLaw & Ethics8 years agoWhat Should I tell my Dad?
I got horrible grades this years because I moved from US to India. As hard as I tried to understand the grading format, and as much as I tried to acquire information, I could not. I ended up with a D average. Last year, I had a 94% average (I just finished 9th grade). I blame the teachers which is unacceptable.
I just want to know what I should tell my dad while showing him my report card to ease his anger. I know that if I blame him or my teachers, he'll be furious. What should I do?
FYI: He is Indian.
(Im not)

4 AnswersCard Games8 years agoCan I still get into a good college?
I recently moved from US to India and the education is horrible. I just finished ninth grade with a 1.97 GPA, that is quite frankly, sh!t. I was wondering if I still have hope. I am currently learning how to ride a horse and playing soccer in school. I also plan on starting swimming over the summer. Furthermore, a won a chess tournament this year and I am perfecting my chess skills.
I plan on starting a business next year, around February as colleges might like to look at that. I am stacking up on extra-curricular activities and doing a lot of community service to make my self well rounded. But at the end of the day, my grades reek (If your wondering, I am in IGCSE). How can I get into a good college, my choices are:
Stanford
London School of Economics
Colombia
NYU (Home)
3 AnswersPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agoWhy does my dad blame me for my horrible teachers?
My teachers are horrible. I recently moved form US to India and I go to a big school with a lot of American kids like me. But my teachers are horribly ****. I am 15 and in high school. I can seem to get the grades I want. I studied a cumulative of 16 hours for my chemistry test and I dont even think I got more than a 70%. Next year is 10th and for anyone in the UK and what not, you know I have board exams. I need to do well, and oh, my syllabus is IGCSE.
My dad thinks that its my fault for not trying hard enough, but most kids, even the ones that have been living here for a long time are not doing well. The staff of the school simply doesn't care and its apparently the best school in the city. I pay $16,000 USD for **** education. The kids that do well do it in a dishonest way, in IGCSE the dumb teachers dont make their own test, they get questions from past board exam papers. The kids just memorize the answers to all the questions. But this wont help you on the Board Exams which do have new questions every year and it is dishonest. Any advice would be great.
3 AnswersTeaching8 years agoIs Self-Defense Against Mother h.a.r.a.m?
My mom told my sister to use my phone to call someone. She took it and permanently locked it. So i took my moms phone to re-coy emergency contacts. For some reason, what ever she thought i was doing, she came and started to scratch my face. I pushed her away. She started to beat my but I kept pushing her away when she got close. For some reason H.A.R.A.M is all stared when you type it.
Now she says she's going to tell my dad that I hit her, although I only pushed her, for self-defense. I don't know what to do....is it a sin for me to protect my self.
Oh, and my face has several scars on it now.

So im going to Japan for 2 weeks and I know nudity is pretty open their. I am a closet nudist and was wondering if room service would mind if they saw me in the nude. I ask this because I know Japan is typically open to nudity.
7 AnswersJapan8 years agoMy dad got backstabbed.?
My dad and his friend owned a company. The recently split because his friend wanted a higher cut, but wasn't doing nearly half the work. My dad has platinum membership in several hotels and airlines because he travels to get big business contracts. His friend (probably not anymore) sits at home, because he is an illegal immigrant.
Recently my dad started a gated community. Fir the last month, he has been making a deal with a group of people who wanted 200 homes, they were all looking to retire. My dad asked them to come into the office (his 'friend' still worked there too) later on that week. But my dad had an emergency and left, so he asked the buyers to meet with my uncle. his 'friend' found out about the buyers and when they came, said he was my dads brother, my uncle. He stole our projects my dad had been working on for the last 2 months. And we lost $20,000,000 of business. Those homes will still be sold, but now it will take a year or so.
I got mad when I heard this, who wouldn't. Is there anything my dad can do, or did his friend 'take our customers, that he never met, fairly?
