I feel really awful. I am studying at a fairly good uni in the UK, (top ten in the UK for my subject, and top 30 in Europe), and my mom doesn't like that I am here and not in my home country for uni. My home country doesn't have good unis, or many job opportunities, so initially they sent me to the UK for good opportunities. Also, initially when I got the offer for my uni, my mom told me "I don't know why you're so excited, you're not going to get in." And I did. But not that's not good enough anymore. If I go back to my home country for my masters, I get to be around my family but I will not be making a lot of money, and it will be very difficult for me since I haven't ever learned the academic side to my language, I only know conversational since I grew up in another English speaking country and then moved back to my home country. I am so upset that it's not good enough for her and I have no idea what to do and every time we finish calling I have to sit for like 30 min and do nothing bc I get so depressed from the comments of "no one is going to take you for a job bc it's a good school, no one cares.". I hate this and myself. This sucks I just want things to get better.

Persuading your own carrier isn't reason to hate yourself. Its normal for mothers to be attached to their children but we also need to grow up one day and it's hard to accept that, but im sorry she isn't supporting you. I also moved to a different country for uni but it isn't a good one like yours but still much more opportunities for me than in my own country. Money isn't the most important thing so just follow your hart and do what you think is best for you. You're looking for your own happiness, i know money brings a lot of things but its ussles if you unhappy in life. In the end she will be proud of you whatever you chose. I just hope you choose well by yourself and you don't make a mistake by listening what other people want.
