My parents are LARPing the Victorian era?

Hello everyone, I am 17 years old, male and I have a problem with my family.

My parents have a great passion for the Victorian era, whether it's in terms of aesthetics, technology (apart from medical innovation), or values ​​and norms.

I grew up that way, and it was perfectly fine until I started school. Since then, I've experienced a never-ending culture shock, and I'm determined to finally break free.

I'm fed up with the prudishness, the high expectations my parents have of me, the contempt for modern technology and everything that goes with it.

I'm trying to get more and more out of it, but at the end of the day, I'm still a student and I don't want to break up with my parents.

How can I withdraw from this lifestyle in a reconciliatory way without hurting them too much? And in a way that they will actually accept it?

You want your parents to live as they want. Only they must not dictate DIR to do it the same way.

Talk to you. That you do not want to live as much as before that you soon become 18 and have developed your own ideas of your kind.

That you do not want to be restricted in terms of *technical innovations*.

That you are curious about starting life as a young adult and not with the rules and ideas of your parents.

TALK to you. Maybe they react quite differently than you fear or suspect. And then you keep looking…

You'll have to wait one year.

If you become full-year, your project can be realized.

This problem will be solved at the latest when you move from home. You wouldn't be the first to contact your parents.

Otherwise, because of your "new" way of life, they will make endless accusations and want to interfere in your own life.
