Now I really have issues with this.
Sorry, but this is one of the things we as parents do wrong the most. When our kids - you - screw up, we need to let them take the responsibility for their actions. That's how you learn right from wrong and good decision making, maturity, we call it in the real world.
Specialized1248, I noticed that you said that your parents disagreed with the level of your punishment, but you never said anything about them trying to "fix" it or make it go away. Good for them, and good for you!
Now is the time when your character will show the most. You need to be proactive about the issue Genia mentioned, and work with your teachers to minimize the damage of missing 7 days of school - as much as you are allowed. Good luck!
