annoying disapointment
I have to do a foundation yeah bc I didn't get good grades for uni. My dad keep calling me a disappointment at every chance he can get.
"Should I cook dinner" - you will probably disappoint.
"should I accept the offer" - its just disappointing.
"there is nothing I can do" - I can't believe it, I am so disappointed.
"its a year extra, its not the end of the world" - do you not feel disappointed with yourself
We've never had a close relationship but results just made it worse. He's said the most insults towards me today than he has in my entire life, i'm just scared and upset

Hi there,
I'm sorry to hear you're having problems with your dad about your results. Firstly, taking a foundation year does not make you a disappointment. It's a way for you to access your degree later on and as a previous foundation student myself, I actually felt much more confident when starting the first year of my degree from doing my foundation.
This may be something that eases with time as your dad comes around to the idea of your new route into uni, which I know might not be easy. I think the more he understand the course and what a foundation year can help you with, the more accepting he may become.
Is there anyone nearby or other family or friends you can reach out to today? Maybe having some additional support if you can might ease the way you're feeling.
Wishing you the best for your foundation year and I hope things get better with your dad.
