[quote=Anonymous]OP, your follow-up post seems to have backed down a bit. I posted previously about online grading, and I hope you realize that your daughter was playing you a bit here - she knew about her grade and almost certainly understood what it meant for her graduation status. And she used the 'decorating my apartment' thing as a ploy to let you discover the news and help her find a way out of it. She probably figured that you'd blame the university first and foremost, a not-altogether-surprising reaction given the fact that you probably paid $200-300k for that piece of paper she's still lacking. If this was my kid, I'd want her to know that I knew exactly what was up. Because next time she gets into some deep trouble, you want her to do the adult thing and admit her responsibility. And yes, ask for help if she needs that too, directly rather than using some silly gambit to avoid her own culpability.[/quote]
