Just start being a adult. Take care of your stuff. Parents will always try to treat you like a child.

Act like one, first & foremost. That right there is convincing.
Ask politely.
Maintain adult behavior.
Insist. Politely.
Maintain adult behavior.
You don't mention your age, which gives us an insufficient amount of data by which to judge your parents actions. What, if anything is in your recent & semi-recent past which would cause them to hold this opinion?
At age 18, you have the option of moving out & paying your own bills, if you are capable. This would be very convincing.
Good Luck.

If you want to be treated like an adult you have to act like one. Go to them directly and tell them your position.

just show them cuz if u just tell them that, theyll just be like aww shes so cute so just act very mature and if u do something wrong, apologize and take responsibility for your actions. trust me, if your parents see that you are acting like an adult, youll get a lot more freedoms.

If you start to act like one they will soon after start to treat you like one. They have to see that you are ready for that kind of treatment and responsibility.

start acting like one... you'll get more respect. Throwing everything they say back in their face is childish, if they tell you something, say this...okay I understand how you feel and it sounds like a good idea but I feel.....
