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.

I think that they ought to be more respectful, and treat you like an adult since you are an adult!

@LaylaTheTallGirl And how is her comment on what your grandparents should be doing help your situation? Nobody here has disagreed that you can take care of yourself. You asked for advice on what you should do and people have told you that. Had you just wanted us all to say that yes you can take care of yourself you should not have asked for advice but for us to all agree with you.

The common sense is that you are in a situation that you cannot control, and unless you can convince your grandparents you are capable you will have to find a place to stay. Or you can just use common sense that you are capable of taking care of yourself, but not sure where you are going to stay.
