What do I do if my parents restrict me from going out and I'm not allowed to date anyone and they grounded me and not even letting me go to college?

Not going out or dating, it's kind if typical, my dad was like that but my mom sorta stopped him from treating me and my other 2 siblings like that.
As for not letting you go to college? That kind of sounds like controlling. My best friend had really strict parents, she couldn't even have a lot of friends or have sleepovers, but when she turned 18 they didn't stop her from doing anything, she went out on dates, hung out a lot, and even went to another state to go to college and they never tried stopping her.

They did this before my 18 and also after my 18. Now I'm above 20 and they are still doing it

To me this kind of sounds like controlling. Do they at least let you work at a job?

[Asker]

They don't allow me to go far to do job. Only restricts me to do job nearest to my home only. I am not doing any job now as I need to complete my higher studies to get a job. They don't let me go college as they fear if I will date someone if they send me

Tbh I think you should find a job that will help you save money, so you can leave, especially if your dream career is something that needs you to go through college first.

Is moving out a good option?

[Horror_lover92]

Sadly, yes. Don't let them control your life due to a fear of you dating someone.

If you are over 18 I recommend that you get a job and your own place and then they can't tell you what to do anymore. As long as you're living under their roof you have to abide by their rules. That's why you need your own roof and your own rules.

Not even letting you go to college? Are you from any Arabian nation?

[Asker]

No. I'm not from Arabian nation but I have a conservative family

Act bold and go

[Asker]

If I act bold and go I fear if they follow me to my college and make it a horrible issue before my college friends and staff as they already warned about it

[CorbetRig]

Shit

[UniquelyBasic]
