ok EMERGENCY! my parents told me theyve decided to switch me into another school. im going to a public school right now and all of me friends are here and I mean ALL of them. they say I dont concentrate enough on my school work which is total crap because I have over a 4.0 gpa and im taking 4 honors classes, what the f*ck? im pretty sure its because they think I party too much, which I guess you could say is true, but im aceing almost all of my classes anyways so what does it matter? they want me to go to this prep school who is my current high school's rival and I dont know anyone there. how do I convince them to let me stay? I have until january

If this bothers you that much, then stop being such a party girl. Your parents know what they're doing - it has nothing to do with your grades.

You have until January, so shape up or be prepared to move.

Obvious your parents love you and are looking after your best interests - those friends (hopefully they're a positive influence) are a phone call away and you'll have the opportunity to make new ones - hardly an emergency or the end of the world...Take care !!

You can make new friends. Trust me. I have moved to three different schools. It is awkward at first but you can make new friends and keep in touch with old ones.
