How do I convice my strict parents to let me move out?

How can I convince my parents to let me move out? Im 18, going to college full time and have a part time job. My boyfriend of 3 years is getting his own place and we would like to see how it would be to live together, or if we could. As for the financial part, his mother will be paying the rent and bills and I would pitch in as much money as she allows to help out with bills and what not. They only issue is my strict parents. I’ve always been a good kid to my parents. Never did drugs, or anything illegal. I always did good in school and always had my priorities right. Im just afraid that they will say im too young and be upset with me for wanting to move out. Im tired of being so sheltered at home and I want to be out on my own. help?..

Answer #1

im am in the same exact situation or at least was.you just have to sit down and talk with your parents and explain to them how you feel and make sure that they understand that your a mature young adult now.even if they say no,your 18 and its your choice.you cant worryabout what your parents think or say your entire life.you have your own life now.from experience,just speak your mind about it.my parents are the same exact way but I talked to them.they still didnt want me to but in the end it was my choice.do what is going to make you happy,not anyone else but you.

Answer #2

well technically your 18 so you can do what you want no matter what they say. but for the sake of your question go to them calm and you could say how you feel in a proffessional calm adult manner. and try not to argue. like have an organized convo. it would also help to not tell them what they dont need to hear, but you should tell the truth cus they will more likely find out anyway

Answer #3

Well your 18, you can make your own decisions. Sit your parents down, and tell them that you want to move out. Tell them that you feel you need to go out into the world and depend on yourself.. tell them you’l come and visit them all the time and that you love them Try to reason with them… because its a big step for you as well as the. Just make sure you use a soft voice and don’t seem like you are shouting at them. Just keep the atmosphere calm. Just make sure that they are still going to be there for you after you move out though.. because every child needs their parents, even though you may not think it. Good luck x
