Chidren are to obey their parents in the Lord (Epheisians 6:1). This means you obey them if their instructions are in line with God's word. If not then you obey the word of God without being rude or antagonistic against them but honoring them. Children who marry should leave their parents and form their own family unit and they will not be under the control of their parents. If you are of accountable age you can make your own decisions taking into account your parent's desires. You should not of course sin. If you are born again you will not go to hell if you disobey your parents but you will not enjoy the blessings that come from honoring your parents (Ephesians 6:3).

Yes according to the holy Qur'an,all children have to obey their parents.We could not say shame or fie to our parents.We should honour and respect to the elders including our own parents.Parents have long experience so we must treat them like a teacher.We can disobey our parents only if they instructed us the wrong deed such as to steal,to kill,to tell a lie,to dishonest etc.As long as they ask us for something in a right path we should help them..It is not only apply when we are in children era but also if we are grown up although the adult children have their own responsibility to their families and to the God.We will be burnt in hell if we have so many wrong doings and we neglected our parents in misery in their old ages.We should show gratitude to our parents who have raised us up with love and gently.Without them we are not exist in this earth..God created us through them.

Do you believe you are going to burn in hell? Do you feel like your disobedience to your parents make you such a bad person that you deserve to bake like a tater in hell for all of eternity? If one of your parents told you to kill your neighbor and you refused to do it, isn't that disobedience? Do you think refusing to kill someone even though your parents told you to is going to send you to the eternal wienie roast?
Like so many other things in the bible there are no specifics. How about looking in your own heart and ask yourself, "Do I deserve to burn in hell after I take the final dirt nap?" Probably not unless your parents did tell you to go kill someone and you did then you committed an act of murder which is a big no, no and will get you a trip to the devil's smoker.
Just live your life being the best person you can be and do not worry about the rest.

I believe when you become an adult your own your own. We are not suppose to do it if we know that it is wrong, in Gods eyes or the laws. The only way you will go to hell, is if you reject God and his plan for salvation, which was Jesus Christ and the cross. Repentence is what determines your eternal life.

Honoring,obeying and respecting your parents and elders is written on the bible.If you disobey your parents, you will never expect to be obeyed by others and you will never expect that God will bless you. Satan will bless you and will bring you to the wrong path of life,.
