About your problem, sometimes most of you still want parents’ help and advice. However, talking to them can be difficult. What should you do to make it easier?
The more you do something, the easier it will be. Everything seems difficult at first. But if you talk to your parents more often, you will be surprised to see the change. And next time when you have problems, you will feel more comfortable to talk with them.
Tell your parents something about you. You can share your school life with them. Even a small talk like what’s for dinner can keep the relation between you and your parents strong and comfortable.

On the contrary(相反), they will help you find out the reasons for your poor grades. And next time, you will do better.
