The very fact that your are thinking about not listening to them, and not respecting what they say, shows that you aren't mature enough to live whereever you want and do whatever you want. Learn to respect them, talk over the decision, and try to show them your point of view. They gave birth to you , supported you, and raised you, show them some decent respect by listening to what they say.


please, im sure you would do the same thing.

wanna know where i cant stay? MY BROTHERS HOUSE. why? because their was another GIRL there...and it was a "CO ED sleepover", funniest thing ive evar heard. its retarded, not like their are crack heads sitting around doing lines of coke, then i would listen.

No, I wouldn't do the same thing. I was in a similar situation. I'm 19, I wanted to move in with my fiance, but my parents said no, that's not a good idea, and gave me reasons. Granted, they were reasons I didn't agree with, but I'm financially independant from them, and I respected their decision to postpone the move in until we're married. I'm engaged to this girl, totally independant, and yet I still listed to my parents and respected them.

Here is the deal. You are living there for free. They are providing you with a roof over your head and I'm sure they don't kick you out when dinner times comes. You are 18 big Fvcking deal! You are still a child, YES, you are a child. Don't take that the wrong way. I was 18 and thought I was king $hit and knew it all. Well, I didn't.

Anyway before I get too deep into my old man rant. Your parents are looking out for you. They do know better than you, they might be over-protective but it's because they love you. Do you know that your father probably stood over your bed thinking of how many ways you will make him proud through the years? He sat watching your play or a sport or when you showed him something on the computer and thought that you have exceeded his expectations. They are looking out for your best interests. They might be wrong but they are trying to do what is going to be the best to keep you safe. Bottom line is that they care. Show them the respect they deserve for raising you. On their end they should be comfortable in the way they brought you up. They should have confidence in you because of the lessons they taught you thought the years. Your decision should be consistent with their upbringing. There are extreme cases but if you are normal and they are normal there should be similar choices. Don't disappoint them.

Old man rambling off. I feel I am in a unique situation I'm only 31 I still feel 18 but have the responsibility of someone who is 40. I see both sides.

i'm buying a place in a couple months but i still get grief.. though i've got my freedom, i still hear 'i don't like that you're staying up late when you have work' 'i'm never late am i?' 'no but it may effect your work'..

being a sys admin i'm not too concerned but it's annoying to be lectuered at the age of 21.


edit; you should still respect them, but explain to them that they shouldn't worry and you can take care of yourself, though if you just turned 18 or something, stop whining, you're still a kid.. hell IM still a kid.

You're right, I'd laugh hysterically if I saw you post a thread tomorrow entitled "Crap! My parents kicked me out of their house and I have nowhere to stay!"

Kinda reminds me of this thread by EnragedPC who has been MIA since posting that thread

No more good reasons then you're parents. My point is to respect your parents, they're the only one's you'll ever have. You'll realize that when you lose/almost lose one.

please, you dont even know me

im far from that. and spoiled? you must be crazy, everything i have, ive bought.

kthxdie.

First of all, you're ungrateful because after everything your parents have done for you (at the very least put a roof over your head) you can't give them the respect to obey their wishes. And you're spoiled because you don't pay rent. That is just my opinion, some people will disagree with me, but that's how I feel.

And how long have you been buying your own things? You're only 18, you could only have been working for around 2 years. Don't act like you're making great money and you're doing them a favor by staying there.

Real mature. I can see that you are ready to make it on your own and your parents are way off base about your level of maturity.

I remember when I was 18 and knew everything....

You, too?

Your parents have every right to tell you what to do. Move out if you don't like it.

Ditto. But in this case, I don't think the guy realizes how good he's got it.

Riiiiiight.

Let's put it this way:
If you were as wise and mature as you make yourself out to be, you wouldn't even be here posting this thread. You'd either respect your parents' wishes or have the balls to move out instead of banking on them not kicking you to the curb when you defy them.

Sounds like you are not going to listen to them ever again no matter what they tell you. My suggestion is to move out! Get out as soon as you can because sooner rather than later you will end up resenting them and something bad will happen.

Or the electricity that is flowing thru the computer, the water that he uses to take a shower, the soap that he washes with, the heat that keeps his room warm at night, the sheets on his bed, the laundry detergent to wash the sheets. He doesn't even realize how much these people do for him.

You don't screw with your parents when you turn 18 . You are worse off now then when you where the age 5. If you want a roof over your head until you find a way to support yourself, you follow the rules of the house.

And for fawk sake, learn how to write out a constructive thought. I could hardly understand that babbling post. Did you mean you want to move out or did you mean you want to hang with some friends over night?

Either way, they know what's best for you as of right now. You can't support yourself, except for maybe car insurance, therefore you still live under your parent's wings. You missed the rebellious age by a few years bud.

hmm. while i agree you are an adult in age you still need to do some growing up.

just your attitude shows that. IF i was you i would sit down and talk to them. if you still dont like it then threaten to join the army! that will show them! if they still refuse join up! at least then you will grow up.

I think your some hissy fit punk ass teenager who thinks he knows what he's doing. You don't. Move out, so you can come dragging your ass behind you on your way to your parents front door, to continue using THEIR food THEIR water THEIR car, and everything else.
