'[Am I the jerk] for getting a dog': Family orders adult woman to get rid of her pet dog because her brother is allergic
Growing up, it's important to listen to your parents. Generally, they have a lot of insight and experience that you lack at this point in your life—plus a healthy dose of resulting cynicism. Once you've graduated from their care and have your own place, you get to live your life on your own terms, free to make your own mistakes and live your own life—which often ends with you constantly asking them for advice anyways.

Whether or not you want to own your own dog as an adult is one of those things, and demanding that your adult child get rid of their pet—in their own home—is downright insane. It's unfortunately what this Redditor was facing when their parents demanded they get rid of their dog because of their brother's allergies.
