Talk to your parents when you're calm, don't wait until a "next time" fight. Make sure your friend and her Dad are serious about you renting the room, and consider things like will your friend be a good roommate? Will you? You may be 18 but if you're still living with your parents and they're paying for the house, it is only fair that they have some say in your life and they deserve respect. If they threw you out, there had to be something you were doing that upset them. Think rationally and don't make a hasty decision. If you leave and if the roommate thing doesn't work out, they may not welcome you back. Be sure you have a job and can pay not just rent but help with other bills...electric, phone, etc.

Depends on what the fight is about. But ultimately, you are 18 and it is your life. If you can't find middle ground with your parents, as even though you are 18 you still must respect them and their wishes living in their home, then you should move out. If their wishes are reasonable but with a few altercations meaning changes, then try your best to find a middle ground. In the end they are mostly using that because they feel whatever it is you are doing may harm you now or in the long run and they love you and don't want any harm to come to you. However, you need to definetely let them know you are not a little kid anymore and need to make your own mistakes and decisions regarding your life. So first decide if the issue you are arguing about is worth the argument to begin with, then try talking to them.

You should definetly stay at your home. Your parents will be the ones who help you when your sick or give you advice when you need it. Stay home. Do you think your friend will clean up the mess you left when you weren't feeling well? Trust me. Your parents are best. And no..I am not a parent trying to talk you into this. I am nowhere near a parent.

You know you are of age you can get a job and move out. Your parents should understand. If you have somewhere to go then you should really leave on good terms its not up to your parents its up to you, but if they are paying for things for you then you should stay and help pay until you are out of debt from them. Never leave on bad terms it doesn't get you anywhere.

Get a job and move out. Your parents house is not a hotel for you to come and go as you please.
