It’s about belief.
The belief they have in you. The way you’ve been, the way you conduct yourself at home and socially – it all matters when you have a conservative, upper/middle-class, sober upbringing.
When you get that opportunity to go full-time into music, you break the news to your parents.
The parents would be concerned about you – as you would have been a lousy chap at home, unorganized, working late into the night, not being social, not being communicative, or being communicative in the wrong way.
The same parents would have been supportive of this move if you’d matured in the way you conducted yourself.
Organized, communicative, social, taking ownership of things and more would have helped you cement the decision of getting into music.
There are some common scenes where you might slog it out all through the night to make music, call over friends, and noise-pollute your house – your building.
You might not care to communicate and talk to your parents about music and how it’s helping you. This negligence might cost you that ‘negative reply.’
Parents look at the child from his current state and read into his future based on what he is today. So you need to ensure that you’re doing things the right way, genuinely — read ‘genuinely.’
Re-evaluate how shoddy, negligent, and irritatingly creepy you are. Re-align yourself, stay focused, composed, and organized. Give confidence to your parents that you have it in you to make it big.
If you are anything outside of this, then you should know that you’re on the wrong side of things, and then you’ll have to beg and ‘convince’ your parents.
