hii im 18 yrs old ..my parents found out about my bf.. actually they have caught me 5 to 6 times and always told me to leave him.. and i used to leave him but after sometime we again get reunited .. my parents have snatched my phone and telling me whether to choose them or my bf.. they are telling me to live in their house according to them otherwise i should leave their house.. i love both of them so much i got my bf after lot of struggles and fights .. i dont know what should i do..my bf is also from another religion and now my parents are telling me that they will not let me study further and will take me to my hometown forever and will get me married their with someone else

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
At 18 when you are still emotionally immature and financially not yet stable, what else do you expect your parents to do?
They are doing what they think is the right thing for you to keep you safe. My suggestion would be to focus on what must matter to you most at this age; your studies...put down your goals and stick to them...
As cruel as it may seem to you that the whole world is against your association with the boy, remember that you have a life ahead of you that will give you the necessary space for such a relationship...so work towards yourself first, so that when you actually get into a relationship, you know that it is right for you!
Right now, you know that your parents may very well pull you out from studies and there goes your dreams of a better future...So, please stop being foolish and step up for yourself and do what's right for you!

All the best!

Ans: Dear Niveditha,
What can you do? Your family is still living under the rock. Your phone has been taken as well! There is no way for you to even consult with your boyfriend and sort the issue out, I guess.
The only thing I can think of is your safety and his at this point in time. You really need to think of what your family is doing; what are these threats? Are they for real?
If there's a way to communicate with your boyfriend, tell him to lay low for a while and you do the same. At times, giving slight rest to a problem can allow people around to become a bit calmer after which you can possibly talk to them and then come to a decision.

All the best!

I am 17 and my parents are threatening me to get married or they will put my bf in some fake cases, without my knowledge they fixed the date and my boards exams are approaching im really scared no one is supporting me in my family what shall I do ?
Ans: No one should be forced into marriage, especially when you're so young and trying to focus on your education. You have rights, and it's important to remember that child marriage is illegal. You are not alone, and there are people and organizations that can help you.

Since your safety and well-being are the priority, try reaching out to a trusted teacher, school counselor, or another adult you trust. They can help you navigate this situation and provide the support you need. If you feel unsafe or need urgent help, consider contacting a child protection helpline or a legal aid organization in your area. They are trained to handle situations like this and can provide you with guidance and protection.

It's crucial to stay calm and gather as much information as possible. If it's safe, keep records of any threats or conversations related to this issue. If you feel comfortable, try having a calm conversation with your parents about your concerns and how this is affecting your mental health and education. Sometimes, approaching the situation from an emotional and respectful perspective can help, but only do this if you feel safe doing so.

Your education and future are important, and no one has the right to take that away from you. If you need more support or guidance, let me know. You are strong, and you will get through this.
