How much nagging should you do?

<p>Can’t wait:</p>

<p>Did you skip grades without your parents’ input? Surely the school must have discussed this with your parents (usually schools have to be prodded into letting students skip one grade, let alone two). </p>

<p>I can understand your frustrations at what you see your parents’ sudden involvement. But it is important for you and they to have a talk about finances. You and they need to know whether they can afford to give you a full ride, whether you should apply to schools that give need-based financial aid or try to go for merit money. This has to be a joint process, not solely yours or your parents, unless the “leave me alone” part also mean letting you be on your own financially.</p>
