my family
I have 5 members in my family, father, mother, an older sister and an older brother.
Besides, I'm the youngest child and the age gap between my siblings and I are like 8 years and 6 years apart.
So, my parents and even my siblings have been treating me as if I were a princess in my family.
But now that's actually bothering me, because I'll turn 22 next year (I'm still a university student). It's officially supposed to be defined as an adult, right? I don't blame them for treating me like that. I would rather be grateful to them for taking care of me concernedly. But I mean, I guess my family is a little bit overprotected.
And I'm talking to my parents about my dream nowadays. I said to them that I want to live in other countries for a job after I graduate from my university. However, they strongly disagreed with me about that. I was so confused. They encouraged me to study abroad one year ago and I did last year. Then now, they don't approve me of getting a job in another country? I know the world possibly isn't as safe as Japan. And they are taking it as a serious problem. I mean I want to follow my feeling and pursue my dream. On the other hand, I feel like that I have to be obedient to their willings. It's simply because I love them you know. But honestly, I don't know what to do.
So, here is my question. If you were me, what would you do? Would you continue to seek your dream or would you follow your parents' opinion?
If you find any mistakes in my note, please let me know.
And I'd like to hear your opinion as well!
