Parental Clash

Hello,

I am facing a big dilemma. I would like to major in film studies and anthropology and minor in theatre. My parents are pharmacists and both make a decent living. We're in the American middle class. My dad recently quit his job because the hospital worked him to death. I am hoping to transfer schools from UBC in Canada to either Onondaga Community College in Syracuse, NY or UNCW. Unfortunately, UBC was too expensive. However, I have proposed the idea of attending both of these schools to my parents and they are skeptical, even though the expense really wouldn't be a lot. My other sister is attending school also in North Carolina, where we live, and her education is extremely cheap. I feel like they value money before they value me. They don't travel really, just prate about god and jesus all the time. When I was younger, they dragged me to fundamentalist baptist churches. These places were awful; the people were really judgmental and unfriendly. I still think I haven't recovered mentally from this "cultlike" environment, even though it's been six years. They've had plenty of opportunities to see other places in the world, but they're afraid of seeing new things and being open. On top of this, they always tell me to enter a field that I will find a 'job' in. What they mean by job is one job in one place in the US that I will have for the rest of my life, until I die, like they have. The point is that I do not like the American mentality, and certainly don't want to live here for the remainder of my life. How do I convey this to them? Should I just leave and return to Europe?
