RE: Stuck Between Family Ties And Personal Dreams: A Tough Choice

I think I'll focus more on why they are so against it and it's merely fears of the unknown

In that case I can directly ask them and if they say valid reason, I can reconsider otherwise not.

I believe there's almost no disagreements that can't be solved with peaceful conversations.

I disagree with it. There are guardians guardians also who want you to follow their instructions all the time. They are not ready to understand and conversation is useless against them.
