Hi @amyrookes 🙂
I would ignore what they think, at the end of the day this is what is going to make you happy, they will understand when they see how happy they have made you! Luckily my parents have been extremely supportive so they are more than happy for me to go through with it all, they said as long as it makes me happy, and confident 🙂
But honestly you need to do what makes you happy! And they’ll understand eventually 🙂 xx
