Well you could go on and complete your studies find a place big enough for your family and invite them to come stay with you.Or you could find your place in life not forgetting your family but grow up and make your own family to extend the family tree.

Why are you stressed about it?  This should be an issue between your mother and father.  It would be wrong of either of them to drag you and your brother through the process with them.  It should not be a stress factor for you at all.  If they come to you about it just tell them it is between them and they need to work everything out you will still love them both no matter what and they should respect your wishes.

Slight giggles, I am a US Citizen and desire to study in India. My answer might not be helpful but the only way you can change your parents attitude and thoughts is by telling them to give you a chance to prove yourself. You're not a small girl anymore. You need to step in the big bad world and face everything by yourself! Tell them about the pros and cons of studying abroad. While it is true that no place is as safe as your home town because you've been around it so much, everything has it's ups and downs. Is there a specific place you want to study? Do some research, share important facts with your parents so they can start believing you. It is nothing more than the lack of trust that is holding you back. Don't give up on your dreams, pursue them anyway. Your strong steps today will make a bolder woman tomorrow. Good luck with your future.

Yeah they are right..... You should really talk to your parents first or if you feel uncomfortable talk to your siblings and friends at least you would be considering their feelings....... But do you really love your boyfriend that much? Are you really sure that you two are going to live happily ever after like in the fairy tales? DO NOT ruin your life... Guys come and go but families are forever.

I think you can get in as there is a shortage in Australia. Are you finnished or are you still studying? If you are still studying apply for a transfer or if you are looking for work contact an the Australian Government re: your question. They will be able to help you.

It's great that your parents are encouraging you to seek further education.  You say you love them too much to hurt them.  That's hard to deal with but you must.\n\nYou know what you want from your education.  You want to seek it in a larger community.  Maybe the larger school offers more of what you are looking for education wise.\n\nAre they saying they won't help pay for tuition if you don't go to the smaller school?  If that's not an issue, research the school you want to attend, make arrangements for a campus visit, and sit down and share this with your parents.\n\nA good admissions advisor will help your parents understand the reasons for your wanting to attend this school.\n\nIf they won't pay for your education anywhere else, there are still Pell grants, scholarships, and student loans.  You could also apply for work study and earn money that way.\n\nIt's your education and your future.  Go for it.

well, I have to tell something. I'm from an  Arabian country so, I do know this country very well. it's safe but   there is no freedom when you go there forget about  the freedom ,you won't be able to do whatever you want cause it's conservative country ,, they are strict but in general don't worry about  the safety it's safe, \nvenus

You seem to come from a very religious home. So perhaps your parents have certain notions on how you should be educated.  This might  explain why they don't see how much this situation disturbs you.   I know it might be hard for you to see things this way, but you must believe in your heart that these things will pass.  This heartache will pass.  If  the head Nun or director of the school won't help you with  this situation, then it seems that you have no alternative  but to help yourself. The best way is to become oblivious to the name callings and the ill treatment by your classmates. While at school stay focus on your lessons, and  know in your heart that when you get older things will be a lot better.   They will get better because when you  become an adult\nyou can choose legally what your name should be . For now you  should become oblivious to the problems and only think of the  future,  Good Luck!

Make sure you perform better in life than them.\nThis way your mum will have more acute problems on her mind than all the faults in your life and turn all her attention to your brother or sister.\nThis also works with older siblings!

I can't really say much for the education and family system, as that is not my subject, but I can tell you to be careful... British people don't seem to like people immigrating into their country... good luck.

I don't think so. You should go... Australia is my dream land. I hope some day I'll be able to go there too.

you Need to sit down with your parents and explain that a b is a good grade, the more they put this kind of pressure on you the harder it will be for you, your parents need to realise how hard they are being and that they are not offering you the right support, maybe you should let them read some of these emails and give them an insight to how you feel, I'm a parent and i know if i was making my children feel like this i would not be happy with myself,,please try talking to them in a calm manner, and choose a time when non of you are stressed. good luck

What are your parents' concerns?  If you can help answer or address their concerns, then maybe they'll let you go.  Or maybe they have legitimate concerns that you have not considered.\n\nI hope you can work it out with your parents.

Well if you're like me and my asian parents... :/ then talk to them. Give them reasons about what you want. That they shouldn't push you too much because it really doesn't help if they force you to go into something you don't want to. And you can always go into general learning first year and then go from there. I'm having the same problem right now. Sin chao.

Spiritually, never put all your faith in another person, may it be your parents or friends. Instead focus on God, He will never fail you. If you believe in another world better than this one you are in, and that you will go there someday, you will learn to let go of your dark past and move on doing beautiful things in life.\n\nPractically, you need to confide in your mum and ask her to talk to your dad. He may need professional counselling. This is a adult-to-adult problem, it is way beyond your comprehension and control. Meanwhile, be patient and concentrate on your studies instead.

There are people from Zimbabwe whom I'd be happy to help or have as neighbors.  Kirsty Coventry, for example.  But I would rather that MOST of them stay out of Australia.  Look at you: you can't spell "school" correctly, or punctuate sentences properly, or capitalize the names of months or the first person pronoun in the nominative case.  And you want to attend an Aussie university? Ha! Go home!
