During the summer befor emy senior year my folks told me we were moving some 2000 miles away adn I told them they could go but I wasnt going with em, so I do understand your thoughts.
Now being in my 50's I seee their point of view as well.
In 3 short years ( though they wil seem and eternity to you), this wil all be behind you, the foirnds you feel you left behind can stil commucicate with you as they please thanks to the ownders of the internet.
You arent losing a life but yet gaining a whole new, broad and excitng life full of wonders beyond your expectations. give it a chance , please. I know it seems horrid, but I now know the wonders I misse dnot letting my parents move and how short three years are in comparission to 50+.
Parent love theoir kids, even if they are older, it does not make them less of a parent. How often do you go up to them and just hug them for no reason, or ask them if you can do anything for them i wonder.....
A family is a network of a few people scrambling so HARD to take care of those they love, they often forget the very fact....
