Hi.
So! I have a few questions for all of you girls!
I am 18 and I want to go to university. However, my parents are not so keen. My mother wants me to focus on finding a husband (I am in no way ready!) and my father won't let me move away to go to school.
I do kind of want to go to college/university and I have found some good christian schools, but my parents are not even willing to compromise. I don't want to disobey them, but I feel that I should be able to further my education.
My brother was accepted into many schools and he was allowed to move to the U.S (we live in england) and go to school there. He is in med school, and my parents never once resisted the idea of him going to school or encouraged him to give up on education.
But, because I am a girl, this changes things in their eyes. I do wish to lead a spiritual life and plan on keeping myself pure until marriage and I know that I will not be going to school just to ogle the boys, but I feel that I can lead a pure life while learning.
Am I wrong? Should girls not go to college?. I do not agree with my parent's viewpoint, but what can I do without disobeying them?
