I would play my best dead pan whenever it comes up (especially in a "HOW COULD YOU DO THIS!" manner). It doesn't sound like they're willing to listen to the reasonable side of it, and until the emotional reaction ebbs a bit it may be a futile effort. You seem to be taking it very well and maturely (good on you!!). You're not doing anything illegal, or unsafe, and at the very least they could respect you as an adult doing something you enjoy. They don't have to like it, but this reaction they had is negative to the point of bizarre to me
Lol glad you caught my joke


I'm sorry too. I really had wished to expose the truth once I had moved and was taking care of myself 100%. I figured once I was on my own two feet, they would respect my choices a little more.

In the meantime, I am going to let my mother be the one to approach me. I just don't feel comfortable talking to her about it unless she is willing to understand. I will gladly answer all of their questions to the best of my ability, but until they find some evidence that suggests I am doing something illegal or unsafe, I will not be changing my ways.
