My sister wants to go to college(UK), but my mother does not let her unless i go with her because i am a boy; and must protect her from getting a boyfriend.

I want to go to a different college to her but my i don't want her to have a rubbish education. She's passed her GCSE's getting average grades.but she wants to to A-Level. but she's id not allowed beacuse of my desire to go to a different college.

what shall I do?

PS: don't say tell her to go and not listen to her mum, becuase you don't know how the afghan culture works( it is so sexist , i f**cking hate it)
So, what should i do please take all these factors into considerations

I would feel selfish and gulity if i let fon't let her go to her desired college.

I have tried to talk to y mum but she is too stubborn to change her mind..

Take all factors into consideration..

Thank You.
 
Does the college that she want to go to offer what you want to do?? if so then maybe you could just bite the bullet so to speak and go to the same college. Im not really sure of how your culture works, but do you have to hang around her all the time?? or just keep an eye out for her? if you don't have to hang out with her all the time then i think it will be ok.
Good Luck
 
If your sister wanted a boyfriend, she could do it behind her own parents' back. How are you going to know if she has a boyfriend when so many parents don't know about their own kids? Does she even want a boyfriend? This might be a mute arguement if she seriously wants to get an education.

If you have the higher potential of getting a great education out of college, then you should go where you know you would do best. I don't understand the meaning of 'A-level' or why she wouldn't be allowed because you want to go to a different college - I'm from Canada where things are different.

No, you won't be able to change your mother's mind but she has to take a couple of things into consideration such as what I mentioned in my first paragraph.

Second of all, why should your future be stifled because of having to 'babysit'? Aren't you and your sister adults, anyway? Or about to be? I say you need to take your future into your own hands and do what is best for you, even if that means being alienated (for a short time I hope, by your parents). Even if it means you pay for your education yourself.
