Oh, ya…well, to be honest…I have family issues and world not like to go to school near my family. I want to use college as recovery from my past memories of my dad threatening my mom and me hiding in my closet fearing punishment…well anyway…those days are over, but my family would want to visit SD all the time. Also, when my parents recently found out i was not a christian, they verbally abused me for hours and told me I would come back to Christianity and that they would never respect me. Also, my parents are creationists even though they know nothing of the fossil record or the definition of evolution. Well, setting that aside, I feel urban environments offer more support for me: more open-minded people and being farther from home. I want to feel more independent. Although they will help pay for my college, it is not as though they completely support me. Just wanted to clarify my situation.
