Well its not right to force anyone for anything but just look it like this our parents do so many thing for our hapiness which they dont want to do so we kind of force them aswell and if once in a while they ask us for something i think we shouldnt turn them down just try to be there for them much as you can it will give you inner beauty and alot of blessing in life.I think if you can keep your parents happy you will end up being happy or else your kids will do the same with you and i know you wouldnt like that.so yea go on and try to enjoy it if you can.

Honey, I have been there.  I had a 7 pm curfew on weekends when I was 17 years old.  Tell your parents to trust you and if you do anything wrong, then they can take all rights away again.  You can't do no wrong until you try something.  Tell them that you are a levelheaded  responsible 16 year old and that you would like to win their trust, but you won't be able to if they keep you hidden and secluded.  Tell them you will grow up and move away.  Tell them that you will live a sheltered life and it is not good for your health.  Tell them your true feelings and make them listen.  I feel so bad for you because I was there.  Then I turned 17 and moved away from home, had my own apartment while I was a senior.  I had a full time job, gymnastics practice and school.  I did just fine and it taught me how to be mature.  I am not telling you to take off, but I am telling you to talk to  your parents because they may not understand your TRUE feelings and how you want to hurt yourself.  Just think, you will be 18 in a little bit and you will be able to begin your life the way you want and be your own boss.  Don't hurt yourself, because in all honest, it is not worth it.  Talk to the parent you are closer too!  I feel for you, I have been there.  Then I moved to FL.  I moved away so my family would realize what I meant to them and that they didn't have a hold on me.  It doesn't work for anyone, so don't runaway or anything.  I did this all as an adult okay? Let us know how it goes because I am genuinely worried about you!  Good luck!

What are your parents' concerns?  If you can help answer or address their concerns, then maybe they'll let you go.  Or maybe they have legitimate concerns that you have not considered.\n\nI hope you can work it out with your parents.

Well for starters you should have asked permission if you wanted permission. If you already live on your own, then they can't stop you, but there will be hard feelings on their part. If they decide to be upset, they may cancel your college tuition payments. Much better to talk to them about how much this trip means to you, and get your aunt and uncle involved regarding the accommodations. Try to put yourself in your parents' shoes--their 'baby' going so far away...\n\nGood luck!

I don't necessarily think there is anything wrong with it and if you're okay with it there shouldn't be a problem. My mom goes in with me (though I am a teenage girl). I feel more comfortable with her being there so the doctor doesn't do anything that I don't want them to. Again, if you feel good about it, don't stress about it. If you don't feel comfortable with it then let her know. It sounds though like you're good so you should just live that way. Don't worry about what other people do because a lot of people aren't comfortable with their parents and it sounds like you are.

if they are insisting that you will just be in the way, then leave it like that. as exciting as it was before and probably will be for the rest of your life, you have to take into consideration in what your parents say. you should work on improving your behavior and prove to them that you are r-e-s-p-o-n-s-i-b-l-e and that you can act civilized when doing grown up things with them. \n\ni understand as a child that they dont have much of say when it comes to adult decisions, but you can mention that you want to feel comfy in your new home too and that you would like to see what houses they're looking at. buying a house is a big thing and all family members should be a part of agreeing with the house, but if youre going to act wild and run around an empty house- youre not going to get anywhere.

you are 18 now if you feel you are ready and can take care of yourself then go live your life... i am sure they have never been there and there is no way they could understand what you are feeling, i am sure they wouldn't want what is best for you. I heard it from my son so many you just don't get it you don't understand, But i understood way better then he ever thought that i could. but when he became 18 he did his own thing now he is 22 and says.... mom you was so right about so many things if only i had listen to you more.

No, unless you had you mother's permission.  \n\nNow, if she gave permission then it would be perfectly fine.

Shi,\n\nYou have great ethics.  But never say "damn parents."  They come above everyone else.\n\nThey are part time jobs to get you through college.  They are not your career.\n\nBe honest, give your two weeks notice and use them as a reference to get another crappy job to get you by when you return.\n\nEnjoy your vacation with your parents!

Stop going out with him.  Your parents love you and want to protect you from harm. It's obvious that you know what you are doing is wrong and it's tearing you up inside.  Do the right thing.  Respect your parents if you ever expect them to respect you.  If you want them to trust you in the future, then be trustworthy.

well it wouldn't be so bad if you wanted to join another culture. if it's what you want then go for it, but if the people say no to what you want to go into, the just ask questions, stating things like why and things. also tell them your parents don't have a certain culture and you want to be a part of something. so just have an awesome time being who you want to be in your culture and in the world.

I think you already know the answer to your question, you yourself said "my parents would be there for me 100%".  This statement says it all.  How do you think your parents would feel if you were missing, especially in another country?  Do you have any idea what this would do to them?  And how would you live in El Salvador?  You are focusing on the here and now, you SHOULD be focusing on the future.  At 16, I doubt that you could go to a foreign country, where you don't know the local customs, don't have family or friends, get a job that would support you, finish school, and eventually get married and have a kid , all the while you are worlds away from your parents.  At the same time, your parents are contacting the local police, making themselves sick with worry, suffering a broken heart, getting search teams to locate you, etc...  You sound like a smart girl, make the smart decision - discuss this with your parents.  You may not like their response, but keep in mind that they are "THERE FOR YOU 100%" so they know what is best for you.  You are 'blinded by love', and should do what your parents suggest.  Believe me, many years from now you will think back to this time and thank your parents for their help.

You are 17, you are old enough to go anywhere the law allows.  Be careful.  If you are gay then there are people who might want to hurt you.

Well i guess you already have your answer, NO.  Sorry if it isn't the answer that you wanted.  Your parents have reasons for what they do, and I am sure they have good reasons for not changing your school.
