I need to talk about something and since my problem is my family, I can't talk to them. Ok..I am 19 years old, working and going to college. I have been looking for an apartment but couldn't find one that would take my dog. Well, last week I finally found one. Chico and I went to look at it today, and I like it. IT isn't the nicest apartment ever, but I can afford it and I like it. I have figured out how many hours I need to work, set up a work schedule that will not interfere with school, and okayed it with my boss. Perfect, right? NO. My family expects me to stay home until I finish college which is alright but I really want to be out on my own, I know it will be hard, but I have thought this all out and I am prepared to do it. My grandparents are worried that I am moving into a bad area and I know they are just concerned, but instead of being negative, I wish I could get a little support. My mom is okay with the idea, I feel she is thinking some things that she wont tell me. I just wish I could get a little support from my family, instead of telling me I am going to end up back home in two months (my grandma said that). Well, thanks for letting me vent
