Being the oldest means you have to travel a rougher road with regards to letting go than your little brother. Maybe time will help? Doesn’t look like it.

Again, I ask about money. Seriously. If you want to go to colleges they do not want you to go to, that is fine, but who will be paying? If they are paying, they have the power. That is reallity. May not be fair, but you seem to have difficult parents. If you can pay, get loans, get scholarships, there is nothing they can do to stop you. You will be 18. As well, if you want financial aid and your parents will not complete the forms, you need advice from your gc. This is just being pragmatic. Just do what you feel is right for you. Don’t sneak around, but don’t push it under their noses. Everytime she says she you are hateful, say “Mom, I do love you” then say no more. That is all you can do.
