Sorry to bring this thread back up guys, but after agreeing, my parents soon changed their mind and decided that they wouldn’t let me do it. I could still try to get them to let me do it, though. They say they don’t want me “chasing hours” and not doing the work for the love of the work. They say that I’ll start to just stay at the lab working late just so that I can get paid, and start thinking about money too much. They say that especially since this is my Senior year, that would be bad. What do you guys think? Should I still go for it?
