i moved out at 19, and did it in a nice way, explaining that i wanted to see what i could do with my life with my own 2 hands, they were reluctant, but i was persistent, and now they repect me more as an individual, not just thier only daughter. as long as they are giving you everything, they still feel the need to protect you, and until you do something FOR yourself, they will never know you as being able to TAKE CARE OF yourself and your desisions... i know life is comfortable, but you have to pick which is more important to you, and maturity plays a big role in all of this, maybe you arent ready to handle everything all by yourself, and if thats the case, sit down with them and try to compromise....
