What if your parents won’t support what you want to do as a career one day?

All I’ve ever wanted to be since I was little was an actress. When I told my parents about it they said they would never support that type of career. They said it’s hard enough to find work out there and that the performing arts industry is tough. They also said I’m young and that I don’t know what I want and that I’ll probably change my mind about a million times between now and then. I feel like they don’t support me with my choices. They just want me to be a lawyer. I don’t even know if that’s what I want to do.
