<human>: I am the first of my family (of 8) to go to university and the fact that I got in makes me extremely happy. I want to celebrate and tell my whole family (aunts, uncles) that I'm going!

However, last week I told my parents and they cried. They said that they don't want to talk about it for a while or tell anyone else until they get use to the idea. I know it'll be hard for them and I won't fully understand how they feel but it damn hurts me that neither can talk about it. Whenether my mum does she starts crying and whenether my dad does he gets angry. 

The other night my dad was talking about how we're getting there. I mentioned that we could ask my uncle to take us, it's a 3 hour drive but we'll pay for petrol. My dad flipped out. He said how he wants him, my mum, and I to travel a 4 hour journey by train, which would cost over £100 (I worked it all out). I made the point that traveling with a family member for only a total of 3 hours there and 3 back would be easier and cheaper than traveling 4 hours to my halls, only for them to stay 20 minutes, and travel 4 hours back. The luggage would be in the car and we wouldn't have to wait in between trains. 

They are making me feel quite shitty and guilty. Is there any way I can persuade them that traveling with my uncle would be best?

Apologies for any spelling/grammar mistakes.

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
