My parents expected all 3 of us to do the best we could. For me, anything less than a "B" was not acceptable. I did get 2 "Cs" in high school, but didn't get in trouble because one was in PE (I refused to do gymnastics and the teacher was the gymnastics coach) and in typing....I sucked!! lol I'm better now with computers, but still not great. I graduated with a 93% average which when I was in school was a B+.

My parents also refused to bribe us for grades....no amount of money for an A or B...it was just expected. They were adamant about that.
