Right out of the mouth of the Me Generation. Just because they love you does not mean that your actions, any actions or decisions in your life, cannot be hurtful to them in someway and you at least admit that you don't care if you hurt them, as long as you are happy.
I didn't say they didn't love you or would not love you, only that your actions can hurt them in your atttempt to be whom ever you want to be.
Absolutely. But there is no requirement for them to continue to support you even if they love you. Just because they love you does not mean they owe you financial, material, or emotional support. That kind of attitude says that the only thing in life is what is important to you and screw what they think.

This closely resembles a few of the conversations I had with my dad when I was 19/20ish. Wow. Talk about flashbacks.
