Bit of a weird one but just trying to see if anyone understands or can give me advice. I'm a law student in Scotland (don't want to be more specific) and I live at home. I'll be applying to traineeships this year and I want to apply to some ones in London as well as up here. I'd love to work in London and I don't see why I shouldn't aim for that. My grades are good and I work hard. Anyway, I'd applied to some law firm open days (London) and a couple have got back. But my parents aren't supportive. They obviously want me to stay up here, or rather have never considered that I might do something else. For context, both are blue collar workers. They don't understand why I'd want to go to London and keep saying to me things about how they don't know what I'm playing at, how I've never been to London and how I obviously don't know what I'm talking about. I don't know what to say. I'd like to go to the open days and at least explore this as a career option. And I understand I don't need my parents' permission or anything like that, but I have a good relationship with my parents otherwise, we've been through some things over the past few years and I like to make them proud. That's not somethings that's going to change so I need help to navigate this situation. Anyone have any advice to offer? That's not just 'f them, do your own thing' (not something I want to do). I can't talk to my uni friends because they're international students whose parents all have big jobs and definitely wouldn't have an issue like this. Thanks.
