I always have to debate with my mom. Is she preparing me for my future presidential run?😅

I never thought wanting to go to boarding school would turn into a family debate. My parents think I’m just trying to run away from home, but honestly, I just want a chance to challenge myself and grow. I spent weeks researching schools, scholarships, and even started prepping for entrance exams—just to prove I’m serious. But every time I bring it up, they worry about the cost, missing me at home, or if I’ll be safe. It’s exhausting trying to answer every concern, especially when I feel like they don’t really hear what I want. Sometimes, I wonder if anyone else has had to fight this hard just to chase a dream. If you’ve ever had to convince your family to let you do something important, how did you get through it? I’d love to hear your stories or advice—maybe we can help each other out. 🤔💬 #FamilyDynamics #BoardingSchool #ParentChildTalk #ChasingDreams #FamilyRelationships
