Overall that is tough. IT is hard to be the person you want to be while living under your quardians roof. When you live in her house, you have to follow her rules. If you are 18 you should be allowed certain freedoms, because she cannot controll you forever.
Would you like to risk getting kicked out though? If you wish to take a risk, see if you can arrange living with a friend before trying. That way, if things go badly, you can live with your friend. If things go smoothly, you can live under your moms roof while having fun.
Just think, maybe there is a may you can contribute that way you can get what you want while making your mom happy. You are your own person now. You are an adult. If you show respect, you will gain it. (Depending)
Good luck!
All the ones telling you that you are 18 and can do what you want are wrong. As long as your mother pays your bills and you live in her house, she has control. If you are ready to move out and be on your own then do it. But don't try the "I'm 18 and I'll do what I want" thing. My daughter tried that. It lasted a whole 2 days. Once she realized that she wouldnt' have a car, insurance, money, a cell phone. all that stuff, she changed her tune.
What you should do is sit your mom down and try to talk with her. See what exactly it is that she doesn't like about how you dress. As for being able to leave the house, You need to try and find out why she won't let you. Did you do something in your past that makes her afraid to let you out? Parents usually have a reason when they are that strict.
You are not going to convince her that you are mature enough to go out if you act like a smart as$ about the whole thing. Keep your cool and show her that you are a young adult.



Somebody please help
How do I get along with my mom if she doesn't accept the way I am? She doesn't like that way I dress and she doesn't let me away from the house. I'm not even allowed to go out with any of my friends or spend the night with them, and I'm already 18!...
Somebody please help.
