Answer #1

Thats is not the way to do it, you say you are mature so why dont you let them no give them a heads-up let them no your 18 and you can do this but if you do it this way you know your going to be wrong!!

Answer #2

If I may, I just have to say that I think you’re going about this all wrong.

You’re trying to prove that you’re mature enough to be on your own, but you’re not yet mature enough to deal with your parents in a respectable manner…the way you’re sneaking around like this is dishonest, and not something that would be done by a mature individual. I think your parents deserve to be told directly, after all, their intentions all along were to make sure you received a good education and grew up to be an upstanding person. Based on your information, I think they’ve managed quite well.

You’re 18. You are legally old enough to move out on your own, and your parents can say no all they want, but they can’t stop you.

Tell them the truth.
