I am so sorry for what your parents are going through. I I realize that weighs emotionally on you.
But.....GET UP, dust yourself off, and do what YOU gotta do to get the education you want. If it means going to a school you perceived as less, DO IT.
Get one or more jobs to get what YOU want.
Granted it was a different time, but both my parents worked two jobs to get their first degrees, I worked two jobs to get my degree.
Did I hate it, YES.......but I did what I had to to get what I wanted.
Go ahead and complain a bit, then shake it off and get to work getting what YOU want.
Nowhere does it say that Higher Education is a right....do whatever you need to get it.
If you need to take a year off, and earn $$$ then do it, and apply for every damn Scholarship, grant, and loan you can if you can.
Trust me, it means nothing unless you are willing to work for what you want.
Quit bitching about the rich kids getting all they want, that does not help YOU achieve your goals.
GO FOR IT! and Good Luck!
and judging from previous posts, I know YOU can do it!
It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...
