<p>Man I feel so bad for you. To have come so far yourself only to be shot down not for monetary or academic reasons but for trivial and irrational ones? Terrible. If you wanted to party and/or hook up, you could do that regardless of where you live.</p>
<p>The one more piece of advice I have for you (although from what I’ve heard of your parents they won’t like it) is for you and your parents to visit one or both of the following people: your high school guidance counselor and a the residential dean of a (any) college. Have your parents explain their concerns to the expert. In all likelihood, the counselor or dean will explain that the feelings and concerns your parents have are typical, but that their expectations are unrealistic. He or she will talk about how all parents have fears of their child living alone but need to overcome them eventually.</p>
<p>If that doesn’t work bro I don’t know what you can do..Maybe make a deal with her where if you live at home for a year and do well academically, they will let you move out? Although if I were you idk if I could handle living with parents like that for another year with all my friends at college…</p>
