Yes, at 18 you are well within your legal rights to move out of your parents house. They will not be able to stop you. The real question is why are you in such a hurry?

The whole "you will not leave until you marry" is probably an exaggeration on their part. I guarantee that if you are 30 and not married yet, they will be telling you to leave.

Turning 18 doesn't mean you are ready to face the world on your own, money or not. There is a lot you can still learn from your parents guidance. That's why they are there.. to help you.

Keep in mind that if you leave at 18 (against your parents wishes) you are going to have a lot more to deal with than struggling to pay bills. You will have to deal with the broken family ties, hurt feelings, feelings of betrayal, feelings of loss, feelings of anger... a whole lot of negative emotions. There is always a better way than walking away from the people that love you.

Legally, when you are 18 you are an adult and allowed to make your own choices and actions as long as they don't go against the law. Your parents can't make you live with them, but they might give you a guilt trip about it.

There are many sides to every situation. It is hard to make it on your own paying bills, working etc. At the same time, some people need independence and need to experience living on their own and relish in the hard work it takes to make it.

Think about what it takes to live on your own, where will you live, work etc. Do you have a good foundation of friends (meaning not freeloaders or drug users)? Talk about these things with your mom and talk to her about not wanting to just jump into a relationship in order to move out and feel like an adult.

If you are rational and have good valid points, while also a willingness to listen and take in her opinions, you two might be able to find some kind of agreement.

Best of luck to you

If you live in a free country, you can do whatever you want when you are 18.
If you are controlled by your parents when you are an adult, and rush into marriage, you are not much more than a slave.

Life is too short to be stifled by such nonsense. Get a job and/or go to college and learn to enjoy life while you're young

Girlfriend, don't be in such a hurry to leave home. You'll still have a lot to learn . So don't leave at 18 only to return when you're 23!

Once your legally an adult, which sounds like your saying it's 18, you can do what you want. Your parents are no longer responsible for you. You will face the results and take responsibility for your own actions. At that time, it will be completely up to you.

Be independent, educated and career-oriented, so you can support yourself at 18. May be your responsible and mature attitude by that time can convince your mother to change her opinion and give you permission to leave the home.

When you become 18 you are able to become independent and go out and live on your own. Of course if that is against your parents wishes then they might just disown you unless you do as they say.

I think she tells you that so that she knows no matter what happens you will be safe and still contacting your family. i suggest you move when you are ready for it yourself and you know what is on your mind and what you wanna do with your life.. Ask your self why you actually wanna move that will help you to be strong. Cause you are allowed according to the law and nothing could stop you..

but make sure you have a JOB first. and do your math.
income = x, expenses = y, savings = z
X >>(bigger than) y+z
