about

I am a 29/f that loves to listen and try to help out. I have always been the one people go to for advice.

I will tell you how I feel about it. If you don't like my answer, I'm sorry. However, usually what I say is true, people just can't handle the truth.

advice

I posted a question a while ago about telling my parents I want to move back to England to finish school when I'm 17 and how I should tell them..

Well, I decided to type everything out just to see how it sounded and so I didn't miss anything out and I had the idea of printing a copy of this one for each of my parents and sitting down with them, explaining the situation to them but then saying ''The details are on the paper I've given you'' and letting them read through the thorough explanation while I'm there..

I thought this way, they couldn't interrupt me or cut me short and there's no way I'll get nervous and forget anything or get too emotional and start crying halfway through my explination.

I've included all the details from prices to schools to transport to areas and at the end there's a little emotional plea.
Is this or is this not a good idea? Should I tell them straight up and risk missing bits out or being interrupted or just give them the paper and then let them ask the questions?
HELP!

Hi hun, me again. I am really glad you decided to talk to them. I think this approach is an excellent idea. It shows that you have thought this out completely and have gone to the trouble of getting all the information needed. I would like to submit one thing to you that I have learned in my communications class, always expect a counter argument and add to your work stating things you know could be brought up to null your work. This way, you have covered all aspects and can expect a better response. I hope this helps, and good luck. I hope soon you will be in England chasing your dreams!!:D
