Very sick with two important classes today
Parent Trap replied to SarahBethSortino's topic in Coursework, Advising, and Exams
People get sick. As long it's not a regular occurrence, faculty understand. -
What do placements look like? That's the real test.

Honestly, the faculty won't give a damn if the OP leaves. Maybe he/she (I'd guess a he) is too smart for the room. Apply for policy shops. Don't need a Ph.D. to work for one.

Scare of an academic meeting
Parent Trap replied to Hope.for.the.best's topic in Coursework, Advising, and Exams
As an advisor, I wouldn't be happy if my advisee was trying to duck me. It's not aggressive to ask someone their progress. Deal with it. As for your parents, I'd tell them to back off. I hope they are not contacting faculty, as I would be leery of allowing anyone to continue in my program if their parents are that involved.
