Shannon,
I have tried to convince the people here that the dog wouldn't snap at their
child but it's not working. They're not saying I can't have a guide dog,
they just don't want me living here with one. 
Moving, unfortunately, is something that I might have to do in this case.

People asking questions doesn't mean they don't want a dog. Not everyone
knows everything for certain without seeking advice from others. Often, it's
helpful to gain insight from other people who may have been in a similar
situation.

Chantal, have you talked to those you live with, explaining to them exactly
why you think a dog is the right choice? If so, do they seem at all
receptive to the idea? I know, when i got my first dog, I was living at home
with my parents. My dad was a huge dog lover, but my mom, not so much. So,
it took some convincing. Once she met my dog, and saw that there weren't any
serious problems, she got used to the idea.

If people are totally unreceptive to the idea of a dog in the house, how
easy would it be for you to move? Moving is not something to be done
lightly. It takes a lot of time and money, plus the resources to keep
yourself afloat once you've moved. Is this something that is possible for
you to do?

I hope you can work things out. Don't stop asking questions. The majority of
people on this list are happy to help you without being judgmental.
