Message: <blockquote data-quote="AstralSpirit" data-source="post: 2234274" data-attributes="member: 782618">I have always loved traveling places, meeting new people and learning about different cultures just as my father did when he was alive. However, for some reason my mother and her side of family seems to take issue with this. They keep telling me that it is not safe traveling to foreign countries because the people and their cultures there are dangerous and should be avoided at all costs (they also told my father the same things, but that never stopped him lol).I'm quite frustrated that they would criticise me for doing something that I love. Just because they are afraid to travel (none of them have ever even crossed the stateline for that matter) doesn't mean that I should be stuck in one place. How can I get them to stop riding my back about this?</blockquote>
