It depends. Are you willing to accept the consequences of not complying? If you are, then do what you want; but don't ***** about being grounded or whatever afterward. I used that as my guidelines when I was a rebellious teenager with long hair a goatee and a motorcycle. I went to a concert my parents said I couldn't go to, I got grounded for a month but it was worth it. It was RANCID, AFI and Redemption 87 at the Fillmore. It is one of my fondest memories. I love this concept that suddenly at 18 you'll be loosed on the world able to make all your own decisions without ever being given the chance before then.
Finally: Good decisions come from experience. Experience; well, experience comes from bad decisions.

You listen. If you really feel you have to go, ask yourself,"why would my parents object?" If your parents went with you, would they see how wonderful this place is? Ask your parents to go with you for a little bit, just so they could see everything is ok. If you think there is no way they will agree with that, then maybe you should think about what elements they would object to.
Most times parents object, because they know what is going on. We all aren't stupid, and we were young once too. Parents do everything to help you make good decisions, even when you think they are unfair. AND like I said, if you think it is worth being at, invite them to see what is really going on! If everything is cool, you will probably be givan a hug and told a time to be home by.
I know it is hard, but parents who restrict, usually are parents who care, not just being mean to be mean.

First: you don't go.
Second: you don't raise a fuss.
Third: the next time you want to go somewhere, you have a plan of attack ready that shows your maturity -- provide information about who you're going with, when you'll be back, how to reach you if they need you, how much money you'll need, and a fallback plan if something goes wrong. Then say "I know this may not be enough to convince you to let me go, but I've done all that I can. Let me know once you've made up your minds." They'll eat it up, and let you go -- and probably let you go lots of other new places as well (provided you keep giving them that type, if not that exhaustive a level, of information.)

Do they have a reason for not wanting you to go? I bet they do. If you don't know it, you should talk to your parents and find out. If you still think you can handle it, then give them some good reasons for letting you go. Finally, remember that they have your best interest in mind, and that it probably wont be long before you will be making all of your own decisions. In the meantime, after the discussion, accept the decision they make and be obedient.

Be reasonable, maybe they have a good reason to say no. Ask questions, maybe you can figure out why they said no and understand where they are coming from. If its something you can help to relieve their fears about, then offer to check in, or have them meet the parents of the kids house you are going to. If its just that they are not familiar with where you want to go, invite them and point out all the safe features of the area, phones, security guards, cameras ect. But sometimes you just have to accept a NO and go on with your day.

Im 22....so i just got out of the house a few years ago.... but man you need to listen to your parents.
It doesn't matter what there reason is, they don't even need a reason. But you are in there care and they are your boss so it doesn't amtter. You gotta do what they want you to be man.
THe real world works the same way, your boss, your landlord, cops, and everybody else with athority over you is going to tell you to do or not to do smething that you dont agree with, but you need to learn that you don't run this world. This is a life leason that if you learn early, you will be better off, and it starts by listing to your parents

Do what they say. They are your parents and they are looking out for your best interests.. Consider yourself lucky if you are not being beatin by them on a daily basis. Also consider yourself lucky they let you on the internet right now. Anyone under the age of 18 shouldnt be here...Sorry..but i can't see a real valid reason why they should.

When your parents say you carnt go somewhere maybe they are trying to keep you safe, But if you really want to go to where ever you want to go then sit your parents down and explain to them where your want to go and how you are going to get there and how you are going to get back. Try to make them understand the teenagers need there freedom.

Tell them they can't either. If they give you rules to follow as parents, you give them rules to follow as their son. Parents and children are a 50 - 50 proposition/agreement. You are valuable property to them.
