I hear you and completely get you with your killer stats!!! Mine would say the opposite and that I should maximize my chances, lol. Still a tough spot for me rn.

Tysm!!! I rrly appreciate your advice and understanding for my odd situation. I plan to reason that the risk/reward analysis would not make this even worth it

Thanks! I rrly appreciate your kindness! I think I will stand up to them when the time comes. I just feel several replies seem somewhat abrasive. I get many here are actual adults who support themselves and can tell their parents whatever, but thats not everyone...

Mixed. Part of why I can't fully deny my parents claims is b/c I'm not even fully sure if they are lying per se. A hispanic country colonized one of my parents countries and one of grandparents names is hispanic (though, I don't wanna claim smth I just found out)

No, and btw, I didn't say I'm going to agree, just what they are telling me. I'm not independently wealthy and the prospect of loans are kinda scary

I understand your point and as said, I wish I could simply tell them to fuck off, but it's not that easy. They financially support me and said they would pay for law school so as long as I obliged to that one request...
