How do I get my parents off of my bank account?

I’m over 18 years old and I want to get my parents off of my bank account. I have a job and my own car and I’m sick of them micromanaging my money. How do I get my parents off of my bank account?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
To get your parents off of your bank account, you’ll need to visit a branch of your bank. Show them your identification and request for your parents to be removed from your account. You can also ask for all of your money in the form of a bank draft and close the account altogether.
Keep in mind: If your account is set up so that you and your parents have joint ownership of the bank account, you may need to bring them with you or have them sign documents to remove themselves from the account or close it.
Alternatively, you can take your bank draft and use it to open a new bank account with another bank. In this case, there is no explanation necessary, but you will need to provide more paperwork.

How do you open a Honda Civic trunk from the outside?
I’m in the process of shopping for a new car since my last one broke down. My dad has been nice enough to let me use his in the meantime. I went grocery shopping the other day and had to use the trunk release lever located inside the car because I couldn’t figure out how to open it from the outside. Can you open a Honda Civic trunk from the outside?
