So she's kind of been reluctant in people knowing where she lives. And from my understanding you can just leave if you want but when it comes to her house. And since yeah it's her house I do wonder where the boundary lays. So I am an adult yes and my mom is out right now with my sister taking care of me and staying around the house which has me worried but she said she would be back either Sunday or Monday and I'm planning on taking my chances Sunday. But seriously what is the rules as it comes down to there are cameras my sister has access to so I think she might see me leaving anyway and question me on this. So what exactly are my rights as an adult? Can someone pick me up in the driveway and we just leave together and then come back home? I do think even if I leave and come back home that can show some form of trust and then I can eventually tell my mom what I did when she gets back home. I even hope I can use my recent birthday as an excuse to start dating. But the main point I want to bring up is if I can tell someone where I live and have them pick me up outside the house?

What exactly are you worried about?

If you are worried for your safety from your family, make a plan to leave, dating is the least of your worries.

If you don't think it's right for your date to know where your mom lives, then just meet them out where you are going, tell them you don't need to be picked up or dropped off. Have the date, say goodbye, go home.

Why are you living at home?

[โ€“] Silentiea@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Because they just reached the age of majority very recently.

25? Some of the other posts made it look like she was from America. What have I missed here?

If it's your house and you pay the bills you can make the rules, if isn't your house and you pay no bills you will have to follow the rules, it doesn't matter how much old you are actually.
