Love, you're just going to have to put up with your parents for now until you turn 18. Don't worry so much about it though. Everything will turn out alright. Once you turn 18, if you want to go to college, then you have every right to.
You can't let your parents guilt you out of it or influence your decision. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting an education. However, since it sounds like you may not receive your parents blessing when you do get to that point in your life, you may have to finance your own education... but don't worry.
Just get good grades and apply for every scholarship that crosses your path. Even if you don't take out a scholarship, student loans are readily available for you to use and you can pay them off over time. I've had to pay for my own schooling because my parents can't afford to help me. It's taking me a while to get finished with school but it's worth it, not only because I'm able to get an education, but also, since I'm paying for it myself, I am appreciating it a lot more. The responsibility is giving me the incentive to to do my best in school.
I don't want to criticize your parents by any means, but they are wrong to try to supress your dreams and manipulate you into not doing something that will only help you in life. Just stick it out until you graduate from high school. There are people in your life who will always support you and pull for you. Good luck!

DON'T WORRY!! Worrying accomplishes NOTHING. Except to make you feel worse about whatever it is you're worrying about. So just relax. Things will work out for you I'm sure, if you try. But worrying and feeling anxious doesn't do you a bit of good.

Calm down. It's good to want good things in life and to make the right decisions, but in 5 years you will wish you could go back to these care-free days you live in right now. I know it's hard to imagine but things get much harder down the road. Enjoy this time while you can and get sleep while you can!
And go to college girl! Get a student loan, etc...do what YOU want in YOUR life!

you are going to colledge, can you afford a car? First things first and worry after, first you need to get accepted for colledge, until then enjoy your life and tease little kids, pet animals and tie shoelaces

Follow your dreams-it's ok to be anxious because you are entering a new chapter in your life. And its your life-do what you want-you are an adult now-and they need to accept that.
