Dear laceycast:

The advantages for you, the pros for staying in Michigan is that:

1. You are currently employed in Michigan and future employment is way more likely in Michigan than in CA.
2. You plan on attending beauty school and there is one available for you in close proximity in Michigan (And in CA, is it a beauty school you wish to attend and is it 75 miles away)?
3. You live with young aunt and uncle, no children and their house rules that are bearable (while the rules in your parents’ house in CA are less bearable)?
4. You are living rent free in Michigan (while in CA, will you be paying your parents rent? Or will you be living close to the school you wish to attend, 75 miles away and pay rent there)?
5. You don’t have friends in Michigan but you don’t have close friends in CA.

Too many questions in my post. Will you clarify what I am not clear about (the question marks) and we’ll go from there.
