Have you parents/family ever tried to control your sex life (even though you're over 18)?

Question

I'm 20 and my parents found out about a sexual relationship I was in and forced me to end it. Since I live under their roof technically, I can't fight them on this.

Answer

Well when my parents found out I was pregnant (I was 18) they first called me a bunch of inappropriate names and then actually took it upon themselves to find a family looking for a child to adopt. Lol yup that's when you know you need to file for a restraining order. And I did too when he showed up at my house and wouldn't leave. He spent 2 nights in jail. Now he's trying to sue me for emotional distress. As if. I think if your parents are trying to control you like that, you have to leave. Sometimes space is good and getting away may make them realize you are old enough to make your own decisions.

Answer

Technically no, because I was forced to move out at 18.

Answer

My mum knows that I'm sexually active and I live with her. She only has one golden rule which is that my boyfriend and I can't have sex under her roof. You're a grown woman, and they shouldn't force you to end it, even if you still live with them.

Answer

My parents don't know that I'm sexually active. I honestly don't know what would happen if they did know....

Answer

What the heck, you're a grown woman. Whether you live under their roof or not. That's extreme, good luck girl, I'd speak up.
