How could i tell my dad i have in-school suspension?

Question

I got it from skipping lunch on the last day of school last year. My dad gets mad about the dumbest things and i just dont want to get grounded for this! I'm 17 and he still treats me like im 12. The school is going to call him friday and tell him that i have it so i have to tell him.

I dont drink/smoke/do drugs... But my dad doesnt trust me at all. Please someone help!

thanks in advance

Answer 1

Why tell him?Its in-school suspension.When they call just make sure that you have the house phone and if he asks who called say a private number or something and erase it off of the caller id and erase the message.Good luck!=)

Answer 2

dont wait to tell him. i found that out the hard way. tell him before they do. most likely you will still get in trouble. just tell the truth.

Answer 3

Your best approach would be to tell him you are sorry but you got in trouble in school. Explain exactly what happened and tell him it will never happen again. Point out positive things you did over the summer that show that you're more mature now. Don't get defensive and act like it wasn't your fault. Take full responsibility for your actions. Then, offer to wash and vacuum out his car as punishment. good Luck!
