Is it ok to leave for a while without your parents?

I come from a Hispanic family and my mom mostly kind of expects me to tell her most things and be by her side. But I’m almost 21 and I grew up mostly in Atlanta Georgia. I have extended family and my dad in New York . I only lived in New York for 9 years and moved away in 2007 . My point is that I recently went to New York to pick up my grandma so she could come to Georgia. I spent a week there before we went to Georgia and for some reason most people want me to be there and work there . Here in Georgia I had a little job babysitting a baby for $30 a day so me being 21 I need a decent job to be able to get ahead in my life . My mom is a great person and I admire her and would like to live with her for the rest of our lives but I mean if someone offers you a job and you need it , it’s worth going for it . New York is more expensive than Georgia and everything works fast over there. I visited the state here and there since I have family there but I don’t fully see how it’s like there. I am going back to New York in a week with my grandma and am staying for Christmas and New Years. But I do feel bad that I can’t spend it with my mom and brothers and stepdad. They do have a choice to go but decided no . Am I dumb for being selfish and not staying in Georgia with everyone there?

You're an adult, you can do what you will, if you can find a way to pay for it. Babysitting is not going to cut it, especially in NYC. And living with your mother for the rest of your life means you're still a kid - you're not, so it's time to get your big girl pants on, and have adult conversations with your family about your direction and future.

You are helping your grandmother to get back to NYC where I presume she lives. Even if you cannot be with your family physically, you can talk to them either by computer or on the phone. Maybe your family is having you to go to NYC so that you might decide for yourself to stay in NYC. There are many more opportunities in NYC for jobs than there are in Georgia. You are correct about NYC being a more expensive place to live. However, your father lives in NYC so until you are on your feet, couldn't you live with your father? Are you torn about living either in NYC or Georgia? or are you torn about not living with your mother? You are a bit confusing with your question - and I feel like you are trying to address a number of issues at once instead of sticking to one main topic. Now that the holidays are here, why not sit down and determine where you feel you would be best. If you are happiest in Georgia, then live there. But if you feel NYC would give you more opportunities, then why not stay in NYC? Even if you don't live in Georgia with your family, doesn't mean that you won't stay close no matter where you live. Your future is the important thing so try to give that a lot of thought.
