It is understandable that you are feeling this way and that school work is coming second or third to your other needs. However, are your teachers aware of your situation? You don’t have to tell them all of the details, but they can’t accommodate for you if they don’t know. It wouldn’t be seen as making an excuse, either. There are so many things going on in all of our lives that we sometimes need a little bit of assistance for. I hope things work out for your family! Don’t be afraid to communicate!
