I just wish he'd set his sights a little higher. A "C" is nothing to be proud of. I'd make it a "B," minimum.

When my kids were in school they received a cash bonus for every "A." They received nothing for a "B", as that was the minimal standard expected of their "job."

A "C" resulted in punitive action. Lots more studying, lots less going out, lots more spot quizzes fron Dad.
