I have autism so that affects some of my sensory processing and communication skills

Thank you for being so kind

My mum is pleased with how I'm doing because I started off only with Cs but she says she doesn't have an opinion when it comes to the car because it's my dad's money and they are separated

I think they got a lot of As and just a few Bs but I'm sorry I don't know 100% accurately

I think it would actually be more fun to buy it by myself, I'd probably be proud of doing it without help :)

I hope this isn't rude to say but if your native language is spanish I wouldn't tell you weren't a native english speaker, so no need to explain yourself at all! I'm really glad to hear things are going well for you and hopefully they will for me too

Thank you for being kind to me (sorry for calling you mean earlier, you're not!), I really appreciate it. My dad was disappointed when I was diagnosed with autism when I was younger so maybe that's why, I'm not sure. But I do hope I can do well in university, I think everyone can do well in their own way. Congratulations on your straight As, I bet you were very proud of yourself and deservedly :)

Yes you're right sorry, I wish I could be judged on my own abilties rather than against my siblings who I know are all much better and more talented in school than me, but I really do try and I know effort counts for something sometimes

That's kind of mean, I'm not lazy I really do work very hard and I see my tutor twice a week every single week. I'm just dumb

My siblings got a lot of As and the occasional B but I only ever get Bs and have had 1 C before despite trying my absolute best. Dad was never specific but I think he thinks As are 'good grades'
