happiness over money?

i had a debate (?) with my parents and basically it was just how im not happy with my current job and i want change. both of them had a massive go at me and it was all revolving around money and how much i make and how stupid i'd be to drop a job like this.

the thing is i am not happy at all. its draining, i hate it but i was just forced to apply because my mom wanted me too.

i just want to know anyone elses perspective in this situation, am i being stupid? or..
