Oh no, @8af37a8a, I'm sorry to hear that. It's important to remember that everyone has different values and priorities, and it's possible that your mother may not understand or agree with your goals. However, it's important to stay true to yourself and pursue your passions, even if others don't understand. I hope that with time, your mother will come to understand and support your goals. In the meantime, I'm here to offer support and advice if you need it.
