Does anyone else feel sometimes like no matter what they do it’s wrong

I get to see my family for the first time in a while. Including my little nephew and niece.

I never was that comfortable around kids. But this time I feel like I’ve got it. That I know how to talk to kids now bc I’ve worked with them so much for my jobs. This thing that’s eluded me for so long makes sense.

But then my mom took me aside to say to stop speaking to kids like I’m at my work, to relax, to loosen up. That I’m not supposed to comment on or correct behavior or model language or anything just relax. That I sound stilted and unnatural and to just be myself.

I don’t know how to relax. I was relaxed. Till this convo came along.

But now I just feel lost and confused and like maybe I’ll just not say anything. I want to help but I have to know how to help correctly.

On the way to a job interview I looked down at my phone to see how many miles until the destination on Maps, saw that I needed to make a left turn. So I signaled and made that turn.

As I was turning I saw another car swerve and hit the medium. I pulled over and the person from the other car came to exchange insurance. They said “you were turning left in the right lane you almost caused an accident I have kids in the car”

I very well may have been in the right lane and turned left. I don’t full recall whether it was or not. Needless to say I apologized and we exchanged insurance.

My car was not damaged as it did not make contact with the other car. The other car’s bumper came off and their tire seemed popped. Some trouble with starting the car but they eventually got it going so it was still drivable.

Am I at fault for possibly turning in the wrong lane? I did not see their car before I had signaled and turned so it’s likely they were either behind me or next to me.

I thought i was doing good but i didn't do good enough. My supervisor said I was doing good. My PROGRAM said I was doing good. BUT I GOT A C. This is bad this is VERY VERY BAD. I got a D before and a C now (anything below a B is a failure) and the graduate catalog says that if I fail 502 and 503 at the same time I'm out of the program forever I don't know what to do and there is no one to talk to and I feel a very strong urge to escape this any way I can whether it is running away or something even more drastic

In my practicum if you get two failing grades (below a B) in the same course level (in my case 502 and 503 are in the same course level) you fail out of the ENTIRE program

My supervisor said I was doing good. They told me I needed to get 3s 4s and 5s to pass. But I ended up with a C as my final grade. Not a B. A C. And I already got a D in 503.

In 503 I knew I wouldn’t pass. They told me in advance I would fail. But in this practicum my supervisor told me I would pass that’d I’d be fine…but I didn’t in the end apparently I’m gonna fail
