[Blindtlk] traveling

[Judy Jones]

Hi, Jen,

I don't know that this list can address all your questions.  First of all, 
as for myself, I have no idea whether or not you're a minor.

You may well have very valid points, and I would recommend you find someone 
local you can trust to mediate issues between you and your parents.

If you are not a minor, you are, in fact, an adult who has the right to make 
decisions on your own, but I think it's hard for any of us on the list to 
address if we don't have a proper insight on issues and background.

Please stay in touch.

Judy Jones
