There have been other people as well who haven't accepted my dreams for my own life, and for some reason, I've always got stuck on those people's opinions and wishes, trying to please them while losing myself..
But no more  The right people will want to know me, not for me to pretend to be someone else.. |
Good for you!!
You can't choose your parents, and who knows what happened to them growing up that made them the way they are. As you get older, chances are you'll find out things that happened in their lives that made them who they are, and will help you understand why they behave the way they do. Good luck...
