I really hate how my dad seems to not care about anything I do unless it's homework and grade related. If I talk about something cool I found, experienced or accomplished, he ignores me and says something along the lines of, "You better be doing your homework!", or, "You should stop worrying about that and concentrate on school!"
It is seriously pissing me off. I understand why he would be worried about it, but I should be able to have a life outside school. Just because I do something that's not for school doesn't mean I'm totally distracted from it!
Of course I care about school, of course I'm trying to get my homework done and pass my classes, but do I really have to just toss away everything else that keeps me sane just because of it? I know it's about my future and all that, but I deserve to have at least a little bit of fun and be able to talk about silly and interesting happenings...
