In the US, at the age of 18 you are legally an adult (in some states it is 16). At this point your parents have no legal reign over you. However, if you still live in their house, or they still support you - you should always keep in mind the ramifications of going against their will (ie. no more support, kicking you out, etc.). Under the age of 18 (or 16 in some states), you have free will (granted by God I suppose), but are still a legal charge of your parents (ie. running away by yourself would be a crime or with someone who is over 18 could be considered a form of kidnapping). Don't forget to consider that usually parents want what is best for their kids. If they are extremely adamant against you dating a certain individual, it might be time to evaluate why they feel that way. Try asking them for a reason. Don't let them get away with "because I said so." They may have a good point for why you shouldn't date them.
