The love for your father is sweet and I respect that.
Every relationship need a little time of .This may be a one time chance for your father to play in another country. If you love your father please let him go. Your dreams , hopes and wishes are important to you and I am sure you dad feel the same way about his dreams , hopes and wishes.Being thrifty does not mean you have to give up every thing in life and live like a monk.We just got to make the right decisions where and what we spend on.

I think it is great that you are seeking help with your questions and concerns. You didn't say if your parents are married and for how long your Dad would be going away. I will assume they are married and that he would be away for quite awhile. As a parent, I know that sometimes we have to do things we would rather not do for the benefit of our family. If money is tight, and your Dad going away for his job would bring in more money, that may be what is best for your family. It may not seem like it now but in hindsight it may just be . As parents we have to weigh the pros and the cons of each decision we make before we go and do something drastic such as taking a job in another country. I am sure that your parents have done just that. You sound very mature and my suggestion would be to discuss your concerns with your parents and discuss the pros and cons from your point of view and from theirs. Sometimes what we have to do is not always the easiest. You may find that your parents share similar concerns but have decided the pros far outnumber them. Good Luck to you and your family. I hope I have helped in some way.

Try telling your dad how you feel about it, it might not convince him, but you feel good all in all that you tried your best before he left. Also ask him to wait until you graduate to hold it off and get a side job. Maybe even you get a side job?

if you think you can do that sacrifice for your dad, then try it. but i guess if your father is a musician and the business seems low in your place, give him the go signal to do the passion of his life in another place. these days, you can still stay in touch with him through phone or the internet.

You definitely need to sit down with you parents and let them know how you feel, voice you concerns.

How long does he in tented to be gone for?

A lot of families run into money problems, and I know it can be stressful. just keep your head up and be strong, and definitely have that conversation with your family.

Tell him how you feel. Tell him that you can't be apart that long. Ask him to find another solution.
