Re: A place to live
Your parents mean well, but when you have different views the best thing to do is rent an apartment so you can make your own decisions.
There is no need to loose contact with your family, but don't try to change their mind about what you are doing, they won't understand it and probably 90% of the people around you won't understand it.
Most of us live inside families but we only share our views on the forums, that is our health family.
When I go in the outside world I bring some enzymes to take with the food I eat.
It is really not that difficult to make your own choices, the problem starts when you start talking about it, normally people would not even notice if you eat different foods etc.
My mother-in-law always had us take the leftovers from a big dinner home and it was easier to take it home and not eat it, instead of refusing it and hurt her feelings.
