oh man this is not good agony auntwell seeing as nobody here seems to actually answer your question here goes,

Personally i never went to college as i didnt really know what i wanted to do and didn't want to spend 3-5 years of my life studying something when i wasn't sure i would follow it as a career, you need to take your own path in life not that of your parents. remember you can always study later in life if you choose to do so.

But also bear in mind that your parents only want the best for you and they are only pushing you because they want you to be successful in your life. its a hard suject bexause parents can be stubborn and forceful but dont feel like you have to do this, your parents will love you no matter what you choose to do in life, but you may have to go through a bit of a rough patch before they come round.

This best thing you can do is follow your heart and eventually you will be where you want to be, it just may take a lot of effort.

Good Luck

Tisha-1 agony auntHi, Selena, could you please tell me why you don't want to go to college? And do not use the words "mom" or "dad" or "parents" in the answer.

Well you can either come up with a good alternative career path and show them you are ambitious but just not academic.

Or you can give it a try and go.

College and Uni is so much fun.

Good Luck!! xx
