Answer 2

Im turning 19 this year. I am an adult. But im not ready to go out; i feel the need of care of my family. If you are mature enough and dependent and financially stable, you should gave it a try with parental approval. Cos when you screw up, you can still go home. Where are you gonna live? Are u moving for college? Can i take care of myself? - These are the questions you should consider. If yes, then it seems like you are already to let go of friends and family.

Answer 3

that depends on your maturity level i know some full grown adults that couldn't hack it on their own with a doctorate degree but it will be alot harder with only a high school diploma so you would far alot better if you have that husler mentality also (and no i dont mean like a drug dealer)
