My parents know, and I'm relieved as well as nearly crying.

I told them, and their verdict is that I'm too young and not mature enough to be able to really do much at all. Even thought I'm almost certain that this is what I am, I suppose I can kind of see their view, as they are very much shocked by what I told them.

What I don't see is how they don't trust my thoughts and the fact that I've been thinking on this matter for a long, long time. I will be seeing a counselor sometime soon, and I hope that maybe they can change the minds of my parents on this situation, but things aren't looking up.

They pretty much said that I have to wait until I move out to do this, and even then, I won't be able to afford those sorts of things for a couple years after that. So, in other words, probably 10+ years.

Thank you for those that read this. It is kind of my own form of therapy (which is why I've been growing rather vocal about it), and I am so thankful for the kindness I have received.
