writes: is it possible for an 18 year old who is not planning to go to college for a year or so to just bartend and move out of their parent's house and be TOTALLY independent??? My house is hell for me and I really want to move out ASAP. I am planning to go to college but i'm still thinking if i'm just gonna go to cosmetology school or study law. Well i'm not gonna be in college for about a year but I really wanna move into a desent apartment by my self. I'm about to go to bartending school for two weeks and all the apartments around here cost 750 and up. I really wanna make it on my own and get out of here because my mom is never there for me. She doesn't help me with anything and i'm sick living in an enviroment in which i don't feel loved. I KNOW i'm going to be MUCH happier if I moved out. My mom is always negative about EVERYTHING I do. Like the other day I told her I was going to the mall just for the heck of it, and she told me, go look for a job and I said ok. Then when I came home I told her what happened. I got two job offers. I was so happy cuz I thought she would be proud of me but she just yells at me: You always go and look for a jobs 10,000 miles from here!!!! And she was the one with the idea of me looking for a job there. She can never just be proud of me or anything. I don't know if i'm dreaming too much. I need an adult's opinion to let me know if it is possible to make it on my own.

i think you need to sit down and have a heart to heart with your mum and explain to her how she is making you feel she may be insecure that her little girl is now an adult and she is still treating you like a kid explain to her that you want some independence if she still makes you feel like this i would personally move out and then maybe your mum will be more proud of you cos you will be standing on your own two feet then hope this helped hun xx good luck keep me posted
