It's a complicated situation because you are living under their roof, and their rules. So it seems like you have 2 main options:
1. Continue to live with them and try your best to convince them that you are ready for a dog, and wait for their approval, or
2. Move out and get a dog whenever you want.
You'll just need to weigh the pros and cons of staying at home, and choose whichever is best for you.

Seriously...And when I make a mistake, they say "We're trying to let you make you're own decisions and let you find your way". Like they're trying to say that these are all my decisions and they had no help with it. And most of the time if I go against their decisions they'll say "I told you so".
They won't let me live on my own without their approval, either. And how am I supposed to live on my own when they come home and I tell them I've been so lonely and sad without anyone else around while they're on vacation? And yes, to the previous comment, they won't let me move out if I don't have a stable job. They literally want me to live with them forever. Even when I'm 30 they'd still want me to live with them. But under their rules.
I don't know what to do, I'm so miserable.
