I tried that with my mum and she was an absolute frigging nightmare. She brought my dad in the room even though he's dumb and he just sat there glaring. They chose my worst subject, French, which is also a subject they know nothing about. She was just really short and condescending the whole time.

I got a decent grade for my average and when I told my mum what I got she said, "What was the point?" At that point I stopped trying. I was 13 and that was the first time in my life they had ever helped me with homework. Was also the last.

I'm NC after my gf was horrified by my ideal reaction to outrageous behaviour that I had normalised as I knew no different. I fell out in a big way and asked my gf to talk to them to give them a chance to build bridges. When my gf finished she told me to forget about them.
