How do i convince my parents to let me live in europe?

Question

i want to study abroad in a foreign exchange program, but my parents say that i do too much and we don't have the money... one semester is four thousand dollars... which would be the equivalent of playing travel soccer for the remaining two years of my high school career, do you have any other suggestions.. i need answers by like next week

THANKS!!!

Answer 1

If money's the only problem, you should...

A) get a job, save up (if you have time)

B) negotiate with your parents, tell them you will pay them back when you get a job or whatever

C) get a loan? (if you qualify)

And if your parents are afraid you'll get mobbed(?), point out that Europe is amazing, while America is an obese country  neck high in debt, and according to recent stuff I've read, America is going downhill.  Makes me wanna go back to Europe. :)
