What to do !, my dad is killing me ... Options

[NaderG]

So i tuned 18 like a month ago and i can actually do stuff without needing parents signature... i wanted to get a bike so i went ahead bought some ride gear , signed u for a motorcycle safety course for which is really really good and i recommend it to those who ride but learned on their own .... anyways , my dad found out after i went for the first session in the course and is against the idea completely ! he said to forget about it and not even bother finishing the course and even return my gear and stuff.... i tired explaining how it can be safe depending on the driver( he thinks i am an insane driver because he drivers slower than the average grandma while i am a bit more spirited) and the techniques plus i am planning to buy a pretty slow bike ! ( GS500F ) .... he is also against me customizing the car in any form , he is against engine swap, lowering and what not ..... so what should i do ?????
Things i need to mention :
1-i cant move out ... i from Egypt ( probably only Egyptian with a 6gc woot!) and as culture dictates , it is not so ok to move out
2-Even if i moved out because of school or whatever, i still have to get his permission for everything ( culture too)

So ya , i am pretty much screwed ....... uh , i just needed to rant !!

thanks if u bothered reading this

I know a few middle eastern people, and they deal with the same thing... but look at the positive side to all of it, since you are such a tight knit family you don't have to worry about how you are going to pay for school, or a place to live. If I remember correctly, you arn't really allowed to move out for school. It has it's benefits and it's negative's, all your dad is trying to do is look out for you, and quite frankly he is right about motorcyles, they do kill 18 year olds, especially when they decide to show off for their girl.

Sorry to say your screwed, but until you get a wife he is the boss, and when you do get a wife, she will be the boss, no win situation what so ever. Good Luck ^^
