Do you think it's wrong for a 21 yr old girl to stay at her bf's for the night? Do you feel a 21 yr old girl still living at home should have a curfew? When does going out become too much I'm 21 and still living at home. I work part time and attend college as studying Business Management. MY PARENTS ARE RIDICULOUSLY STRICT, and it's making life at home a living hell. Basically, I'm either working, studying, at the gym, or out 2 or 3 times a week with my bf or friends. My dad has been giving me a hard time saying that I'm never home, and even if I go out with my friends or bf which does not entail drinking or drugs, rather watching movies, playing video games or out to dinner he complains that I am not home enough. My parents really don't have any hobbies or go out much anymore. I always invite my mum out to dinner with us or to meet my bf's parents etc. But she prefers to stay home on her pc and play internet games. My dad watches the TV all day long! SO I guess in their eyes I do a lot! I have a curfew, which my friends say is ridiculous. But they live in thier own places, not with family. My biggest concern is going to be when my bf buys his own place.My dad already laid down the line by saying that I'm not going to be staying there past 12 as he thinks its dangerous for me to be driving home at late. Of course, I cant stay over his house that looks BAD!! I beg to differ I'm not one of those girls. I;ve always been my own person, and they have even admitted that to people. My question pretty how do I get my parents to treat me like an adult, cut me a little slack, and simple let me stay over my bf's for once. I'm 21! Parents never want to give you credit for all of your responsiblities that you mantain, but whenever they feel like you're getting a little too much slack they make 21 sound like you're not nearly an adult!!
