I understand my DD is anxious about her results tomorrow but anyone would think the world has to stop for her. She is sooooo grumpy and rude tonight, I can't say or do anything right Anyone else in the same boat? Confused

Yes unfortunately

Tinklewinkle · 22/08/2018 23:09

Yep. She’s been downright horrible all day.

I can’t do right for doing wrong

It’ll all be over tomorrow so I’m ignoring the worst of it and was ready with a hug when she ended up in tears a little while ago

Far to much is put on these results, there always has been, but with the change of exams it is much worse for those taking the exams now.

Aw good luck to all your dcs for tomorrow. Cut them some slack.

a couple of early ones to find out about tomorrow. I won’t have a clue what she’s got with the new number grades, can’t my head around them!

Good luck to your DD.

My DD is in the same boat, all quite from her at the mo. I told her to get an early night.

It means the world to them at the moment.

Aw! I was really excited when I saw this thread title, because I have a very limited pool I can talk to about this in RL. But I thought your OP was quite mean. They've worked really hard for these. It's been going on for months. The exams this year were tough. It's a new system, so no one really knows what to expect.

That's a lot of pressure on a 16 yr old. AND it defines what's going to happen to them next.

So I clicked on this with great joy, and was saddened by what I read.

I hope everyone on here with kids getting results tomorrow gets the results they need for their next stage.

But I think I'm going to leave this thread now.

This is so huge for the kids involved! Be tolerant, they’re going to be super moody til they open the envelopes.
