I made some money by doing part-time jobs in the summer vacation. I want to travel, but my mother said I wouldn't go because of my failure. Am I really a failure?

I think it's really an independent thing for you to use your spare time in summer vacation to earn money, which is really much better than those children who only know how to ask their parents for money. You can control the money you earn through your own efforts, and it is natural to want to travel. I think what your mother said is really a bit excessive, and your behavior has not ruined your family.

Your mother may say that about you because she usually saves money and thinks that money should be used for living expenses. Your hard-earned money will be gone in one trip. Many parents have a miserable life, and they will think it is a waste. The gap between our generation and the previous generation is actually quite big, and the consumption concept is different. What my mother usually takes when she goes out, she won't buy it outside. Really frugal.

You can communicate with your mother and tell her what you think. You don't just travel for fun, but go out while you are young, broaden your horizons and experience the customs of different places. It's best to make a detailed itinerary for mom to see. Parents will also worry about your personal safety, afraid that you will get lost in a strange place or meet bad people. You should tell your mother your travel plan and promise her that you will contact her in time every day and pay attention to your own safety.

You can correct your mother's wrong idea and tell her that traveling is also a science. This is not a failure. You have a plan for spending money, and you won't be extravagant. After listening to this, your mother should also understand your thoughts and choose to support you to travel.
