Since you've been grounded your grades have improved, I'd say it's working and you should definitely NOT get your laptop back when you apparently can't manage your life properly when you have one. reply
Grounded for a year is crazy….wtf I genuinely think that you should plead your case because even if they don’t listen or it doesnt go your way you can always keep that in mind that you tried. So now when you’re older you can be like oh you never once listened to me because it’s not you it’s them. They can’t use the excuse that oh “why...... 2 reply
Well you called me a bitch after I called you out for continuously trauma dumping and making disgusting troll posts lmao. My advice is to get off mangago and seek professional help, you seem mentally unstable. Games won’t fix your issues. 5 reply

Ive been in a similar position and I honestly think the most important thing is definitely your mental state… The fact ur only thinking of getting ur laptop back to play games instead of idk trying to get in a better place mentally shows a lot. If they’re genuinely grounding you for one year your parents are definitely in the wrong here and the...... reply
Try to put some effort into studying for a month or so, playing games won't really matter in this situation. I didn't have a device until I finished school, I can tell you that it won't be the end of the world without it for a year. You can distract yourself with other things other than playing games. Wait until you finish school to waste time on g...... reply
The way I see it, you will need to try to talk to your parents about your mental state. Perhaps reach out to an adult in school, mention how you would like to talk to someone about how you're feeling. Since your grades are a result of your mental state, that's the root of the issue that needs to be fixed first. Then it will be easier to convince yo...... reply
