I'm in college (undergrad) for veterinary medicine, and my mom constantly worries that I won't make enough money (b/c vets don't really make that much) when i get out of school. I've loved animals all of my life and honestly couldn't see myself doing anything else. It hurts me that she would even suggest me going into human medicine or something different. Basically my mom's worried b/c she went into music education and now can't find a job (she quit her job to have kids). How do I nicely convince her that being happy is more important than how much money you make? Honestly, if I couldn't find a job that I loved doing, I would rather die.
And also, she tells me all the time that I need to get out with friends, but I've come to find that I'm much more content just watching movies or doing something by myself or just with my sister. She nags about this too and I wish she'd stop!
How do I tell her these things nicely?
