Do I have to listen to my parents if I'm 18 and on Juvenile Probation?

Question

I just turned 18 and I hate listening to my parents. I want to spend the night at my friends tonight but my parents say no. If i'm not out past curfew and remain within my probation terms can I pretty much tell em to f off?

Answer 1

I'm 24, and when I finished college at 21 I moved back home...I lived there for 2 years and during that time I couldn't smoke bud, see my friends that they didn't like, or drink.

I put up with those rules because I needed a place to crash and they were offering rent free living.  They no longer have to support you...they are doing it by choice, and only if you follow their rules.

Answer 2

Look here hommie.....Your 18teen a legal man. Juvenile will assign you a to adult probation.

When this happen they are going to do a home vista check out what's going on.

p**s you papa off enough he might just tell your PO to tell you to bounce. What dose this mean for you.....Well you get to live in a half way house. I mean with some real thugz hommie.

Your 18teen on probation....hommie you need to step your game up, you feel me! Take advantage of moms and dads loving arms right now.

There are no guides or manuals to be cool parents. There doin the best they can, with the $hitt they have, hommie.

All right enough preachin

Like hommie Pac said "Keep your head up" Stay focus because there are lights at the end of the tunnel.

Save your money to move out.(kick some ends down to moms and dad they will respect you for that hommie)

Buy a bucket if you don't have one already and bounce.

Ps

You never want to tell momma and dad to F-OFF. You might have to explain that to man above( 5th commandment)......You dig.....I knew that you could  

Answer 3

yeah that sounds like your 18th birthday brought with it all the wisdom you need to last the rest of your years.  

Answer 4

are you mature enough to handle your self?? that's the question..

Answer 5

Too bad, move out.

Answer 6

In most parts of the real world being  age 18 if you do not meet the terms of your probation you will go to jail.

Plain and simple - that's the fact Miss no longer a juvenile!  

Show up for the PO meeting and WHAM!

No discussion - No let me call home first

No let me put more money in the meter/I don't care if your windows are down.

Deputy comes in, you go out - in handcuffs.

Did you ever consider that they might be trying to keep you out of jail?

If you don't mind sleeping in public, peeing in public, bathing in public, eating in public or turning your parents stomachs inside out then go for it.  Oh did I say Miss-maybe you'll find a friend injail.

Answer 7

Grow up.  Unless you want to move out of your parents house, they can set any rules and regulations they want on you and your life.

Answer 8

A standard condition of juvenile probation is "You shall live with and obey your parent(s) and/or guardian(s) in all matters."  That means all they have to do is call your probation officer if you fail to do as they direct, as long as it is a lawful and reasonable command.

Even though you are a legal adult, since you are over 18, you are still under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court and probation system since you are on juvenile probation.  When your probation is terminated, then you can move out.  Until then, however, you have to follow the terms of your probation

Stay home, or risk trouble with your probation officer

Answer 9

Contracts 101. Read the terms of your probation. It likely gives parents authority to set rules and the consequences if you don't follow them.

... How come I feel like there's info missing here, 'good kid'?

Answer 10

h**l no... If I were you I'd move the h**l out, get a job and support my self.. that would show those meanies...

Answer 11

Ok maybe with the additional stuff you wrote my reply doesn't exactly fit you. However, a lack of respect for your parents is a major deal. Even if you are doing as well as you say. For one they are still providing a lot for you, the bills you pay are not near what it costs to be out on your own.

Here is the kicker. In the real world you have to put up with things that aren't right are not fair and just totally smell like cow pies. How you handle what's happening to you now is developing a pattern for how you will handle injustice in the world as an adult. For the most part putting up with the crapp is necessary. You can always look for another job or do what you have to do to change your life but retaliation and just doing what ever you want is generally going to be a negative force and come back to hurt you.

Sure you can push everything to the limit until you land in jail. Your lack of respect for your parents will most likely make your life very hard for many years to come. Although it doesn't seem that way to you, there is a chain reaction effect for your lack of respect for authority that will kick you in the butt over and over.

Look you're probably right in some respect. There is no harm in sleeping over at your friend's house at your age. But you kind of gave up some of your freedom when you got in trouble enough to be on probation. If you'd start acting right then people could trust you with the things that you should be enjoying now.

Answer 12

If you live in their house, then you will have to abide by their rules or move out.

Answer 13

since your 18 you don't need to listen to your parents. but that depends do you think that your old enough to live on your own and do everything your self. when you don't listen to parents, its like saying i don't need you. but is that how you really feel.    ITS ALL UP TO YOU.
