<p>Hi parents! I haven't looked too closely for feedback on this question, but I was wondering if you could help. </p>
<p>First, a little about me: I am a junior living in Vancouver, aspiring to go to a post-secondary institute away from home in either the US or Canada. </p>
<p>I have told my parents that I want to go away for college, but they are not so keen on the idea. I personally think that I am an independent person with good social skills, and I think I can adapt to the college environment with time (make friends, get to know the area, etc.). They and I both know that I am a responsible young adult who can make decisions for myself; however, they are not too comfortable on the idea. </p>
<p>Do you guys have any advice as to how I can put them at ease and make them feel comfortable with my decision? I love them very much, and I want the best for them as much as they want the best for me! :)</p>
<p>Thank-you in advance!</p>
