Take control of it and stop letting your parents push you around then, do you have to pay your parents money to live at home? If so you'll probably find it better to rent a room in a different house..

im 18.
how do u get away from it?
i live under their roof, im not entitled to a student loan, they pay for my whole university degree. plus i dont have a job
i know the smart thing would be to get a job but its hard when your living in two countries.
plus i love my parents i couldnt just leave them like that.
be thankful he can actually stay over, i think it's weird sleeping with your partner while they're in.

oh I am grateful! I know of mates who's BF's still can't stay over and they've been together for 4 years! But being used to having thm being allowed to stay over makes it horrid when they can't

Don't let u date? Thats harsh!! Luckily i moved out of my mums three-four months ago cos she kept trying to control my life and we argued alot. Best thing I did though cos I couldn't be happier. Im living with my boyfriend and me and my mum get along brilliantly now we not living with each other.

Everyone's entitled to some sort of loan I think. Anyway, moving out would be pretty drastic, I reckon sometimes it's just worth sitting down and discussing things with them. If you're not dating because they don't want you to (rather than you not wanting to yourself) resentment will build up and ultimately they're only delaying something which will happen eventually anyway. I know it's tricky though. To the OP: It's pretty unreasonable of them to use that as a punishment but I suppose all you can do is try to talk to them about it.

Its their house, so you have to abide their rules, I suppose.
Not much you can do except grin and bear it, or move out.
