I disagree with my grandparents about me needing to stay with someone. How can I convince then that I can handle it? PLEASE ANSWER!

So my grandparents were discussing about me and they’re worried about leaving me alone for two weeks and suggests that I stay with a relatives but it’s my choice. Like my aunt. I’m 19 years old! I don’t need to stay with anyone. Don’t get me around I love my family but I don’t need to a babysitter. Somebody has to take care of the house.
I tried to convince them that I’m okay but they said they’re worried that something will happen because I can be naive that let strangers in and being home alone and my behavior so they said it’s better if I stay with someone. No I don’t.I may be autistic but I am not a child. I just got finished with my summer class and I have no job.
They told me that they’re going to New York and Florida. They’re retired. I thought I was going with them but they said it’s only those two. They don’t think I can keep up with the house because I’m don’t help out or clean unless I’m told too that they shouldn’t have to. They don’t know what they’re taking about. None of my friends are speaking to me at the moment so I have no friends.

When you live in someone else's home you play by their rules, like it or not. I imagine they have their reasons, so like it or not, it's their call. All the best to you. God bless!

@luv2fly352 True BUT I AM AN ADULT!!! I’m almost 20! I’m not 10! Can’t believe they’re making me call relatives to stay with like a fucking little child. My sister and her family are out town, my brother just left for a business trip, my sister-in-law and my nieces and nephew are out of town too.

@LaylaTheTallGirl I hear you, but you're stuck with their decision so you'll just have to live with it. What doesn't seem logical or the right decision to you obviously makes perfect sense to them.

@luv2fly352 because I’m special needs? This is so unfair! Nobody does that to my older siblings (39 and 35) and they’re adults. They don’t have special needs.

@LaylaTheTallGirl It's special "needs", not special "wants"

@LaylaTheTallGirl I don't know their rationale, but it's their house, their rules, fair or not. I don't know what other options you have for living elsewhere, otherwise you'll just have to abide by their decision, like it or not.

@justbob I KNOW THAT!! I don’t need anybody to watch me!
