James,
I am guessing that it is sound. It may not appear that way to you but parents have this funny way of knowing what's best at a particular point in time. Fix the problem and the rest will fall into place. For all that First is, it is secondary to other things in your life that should be important. We tell our students that family is first, school is second, family needs and directives (church, scouting, taking care of family members, work, etc.) are third and everything else comes after that including First. Does your school adviser/lead teacher/counselor know of the problem? Have they discussed this with your parents?
