Ok so what do you tell your parents when you get in trouble at school but this time it was really somebody else's fault this and you have been known to do stuff wrong. Do parents really understand kids?

It really all depends on what you do wrong. How often is often? What is it you usually get in trouble for?

Either way, you should be honest with them.

What is it that you are being "blamed" for?

The group doesn't understand what?

Give us an example.

Well I understand things faster then they do and when I try to help them I get told to shut up and not to speak anymore because they want to feel like they are in control and they are affecting my grade and I asked my teacher if I could move but I'm not suppose to tell on them because they are the school jocks and play football and basketball and then she sends me to the office and I get 7 days of iss. And A school for the rest of the semester. BUT I think I can not tell my parents and get away but I don't know if that is right or wrong and I do get into trouble sometimes for talking but I didn't do nothing this time.

I thought these were team situations in the group -- you all work together and no one is Mr. Smarty.

Here's what you do. Instead of "helping by telling" all the answers, you ask leading questions to guide others to good responses. Could you do that? That's how really smart people do well in a group.

Does your teacher have you do an evaluation of your group members as part of the assignment? I do in my class and it really helps because I can't hear everything at once. If not, maybe you can suggest this to your teacher.
