parents taking away music?

If your under 18 your screwed with the bike. Her house her rules. And no it isn't illegal at all... I actually think thats a dumb question because I'm sure you know the answer.

I suggest living with your father if he's more rational. You can probably get the judge to consider living with your other parent if your mother makes some big mistakes making her a danger to you.

 

Just because you know the answer already doesn't make it a dumb question.

 

Why is it that she wants you out of the band? *this should be good*

 

Don't argue with me, I carried your damn baby for 9 months.

 

So what did you do that made her not want to let you play in the band?

 

For us idiots (and by "us" I mean me), what's a D?

 

A letter grade on the report card. It is between 60%-69%.

 

A "D" is a grade on a school report card. It usually means anywhere from a 60%-69% in a class, but some schools have higher standards.

EDIT: Doh Solidus beat me!

 

Ah that kind of D. Here it's 40%-54%.

That's pretty harsh dude, but that's parents for you, until we're old enough to feed ourselves, we're stuck with 'em. Then again, you're a kid, be rebellious. Leave your gear somewhere safe, tell her you lost it (she's not meant to believe you, but that's not the point, if she can't prove it, you're safe ) Then you can practise away whenever (I'm assuming you're allowed go out without having to tell your mum where you're going) That's what I'd do anyway.

 

Doing well in school is more important than your garage band, dude; so I don't really feel much pity. I can make a suggestion, though: try to make some sort of deal with her that if you keep your grades up you can stay with the band and use the equipment.

She's probably waiting on your next grade sheet to come home to see if you're out of trouble yet.

 

Solidus?

From RIOT Solidus?

 

At my high school a D was between 72% and 65%.

 

I think its wrong to take away your childs passion because they got a grade you feel unacdeptable. a D here is a 70-75.
I got through high school with d's,not because i was unintelligent, but because i wasnt interested in doing homework or i was busy playing guitar with my headphones on. Its always been " As long as you pass, it doesnt matter" in my book. I guess passing isnt enough for some people.
