Okay, I am starting to design again but, I have hit another road block. Turns out my parents are not very approving of my hobby of designing. They don't like the fact that I sit at a computer during my free time to design. I've told them that this is something that I want to do but still they aren't very approving of it. They are trying to start limiting my time on here in hopes of getting me off the computer more. So now, I have my parents not really approving of my design hobby and I am supposed to be working on the website stuff. So, my designing here is going to be limited even more. IDK how to get them to realize that I want to do this.
Well, I guess that is it for now. Better get to work on that website design.....

what the hell?
well... tell them you can get a very well-paid job if you know how to design. its true, and your parents will probably ease up on it...
unless they dont like computer-related jobs too >_>

My parents are the same. Always trying to limit the time that i'm on the computer. Thankfully there not doing a good job at it. Anyway I think they should just accept that it's what you want to do.

Okay here we go.
1. I am a parent,
2. I am married.
3. I understand where all your parents are coming from. However I agree with all of you. Your parents just want whats best for you cause they love you. I never knew what that was like. Trust me it is not always good to have your freedoms cause I never knew what it was like to have parents that cared until I met my wifes parents. Non the less and regardless your parents should be more accepting of who you are. If my kid says he wants to be a designer then I will support him cause I love him. I will support my son in anything and everything except for a life of crime. As a parent I have worked hard to provide my kids with everything that ive never had. The biggest problem here is you have a classic will smith song..... Parents just dont understand lol.... Thats very true. Now what I recommend is you sit down with your parents and write down a list of pros and cons. Try to see where there coming from and as to why they think your wasting your time and then you tell them why you feel as if though this is your future. Children are often plagued by over controlling bearing parents who dont want to take the time to listen where there kids are coming from. Tell your parents if they really love you then they will atleast compromise and meet you somewhere down the middle. Remember to talk with respect. however respect needs to go both ways. From parents and children. IF they dont budge then, just wait till your 18 and do what you dream of doing. Dont let anyone tell you that you cant do something that is good for your future. You have a dream....Then follow it. I will be more then happy to debate with anyones parents as a mediator or from a phsycological point of view as someone that just wants to help.

*points at combatsoldier* What he said. Also since you are having a school project with the Webdesign, this is also "designing"! Make this project work and show your parents this website! Show them that you know how to design and sell this story!

ya my parents are like that too, here is my brief summary. They say i should be in my family room, watching tv with them, opposed to being on the computer. watching tv is just staring at a box...computer improves ur typing skills, designing(if u do design), and hand i cordination. guh....parents....
