hello Lovedfree, I'm so sorry that you have been told this by your mother, it would be very upsetting and make you feel worse off, however us 'kids' may not suit the expectations of what our parents have always wanted us to be.
If you have an idea of what you have always wanted to do then you should follow your dreams, while there will be other people who also think it's a terrific idea, and those who believe it will never get off the ground, but instinct is the drive you need.
Once you become successful then your mum may change her tune, but don't let her remarks stall you from going on. Geoff.
