Today, I've lied about my grades for three years of high school already and my mom thinks I'm a straight A student. I'm supposed to be going to college in a year. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom found out that I’ve been faking my exam grades, turning my 30s to 80s and 40s to 90s on the paper exams. She got access to my online student portal and saw my real grades. I'm grounded for the rest of the school year. FML
Today, I found out that my parents lied to me about my GPA so they could go back on our agreement of "3.0 or above or summer school" and had no intention of honoring the agreement anyway. I've been in summer school doing catch-up for kicks. FML
Today, my mom said if I don't get straight As in my classes this year, she'll get the school to hold me back until I do. I believe her. FML
Today, I realized that I hate lying to my mom about having a boyfriend. FML
Today, I came out to my parents. My mom and dad think that I'm lying, just so I could "fit in" with everyone else. FML
Today, I lied and told my friends I was a compulsive liar. Well, I think I lied. FML
Today, after a conference with my teacher who had previously accused me of not doing my homework, she finally discovered she'd been losing it all this time. I've been getting straight Fs for a month. FML
Today, I found out the high school I have been doing at home for the past 3 years isn't accredited and doesn't count for anything. I'm 18 and starting high school as a freshman next year. FML
Today, I ran into one of my teachers from high school. When I told her I'd just recently graduated college and was starting graduate school in the fall, she said, "You don't have to lie, some people just aren't cut out for college. There's no shame." I wasn't lying, I graduated with honors too. FML
Today, I told my mother I was doing fine with my classes when I actually wasn't because her mother is dying, and I didn't want her to have more things to stress about. She found out and she's very hurt. I feel awful about it and I know lying wasn't the right thing to do, but in the moment I didn't want to cause her any more pain. FML

Did...did your mom never ever look at your report cards or progress reports? Notice you weren’t getting any awards for honor roll? She just took your word for it? And you just lied through your teeth for three years? On the one hand Jesus Christ YDI, but on the other hand your mom definitely had a part in this.

You're sad now? You didn't feel bad about routinely lying to your mom's face for the past three years. No pity for self-inflicted wounds. Also, your mom must be a total space cadet.

Sounds like you might just go to community College for a year or 2. They don't care about GPA and are generally affordable.

I can understand hiding it for one year, but if you knew, and didn't bother fixing it for the next two years, that shit is on you. You have one year left, so grow up and sort yourself out before you end up as a 20-something high school senior.
