First, you need to understand the difference between being controlled by your parents or being necessary to follow rules as set by your parents.

Many parents have rules for their children. Until you are of age or emancipated legally, you basically have to follow their rules. A lot of times these rules may feel like they are smothering you or trying to control your life.

If you sincerely feel your parents are being too overprotected or enforcing too many rules that you may not be able to follow at all times, you should have a talk with them. Ask them to make rules that are more appropriate for your age and your history. If you have been a generally good rule-follower, ask if they would eliminate some of the rules that seem unnecessary or change others that you feel you have grown out of.

But keep in mind, every family has rules. Some may seem more ridiculous than others, but there is usually a good intention for many of the rules that are enforced in families.
