I'm gonna pick up on what Maleficent said in her first post. The issue as I see it is not necessarily that she's too attached to her parents (which doesn't really seem to be the case for someone her age about to leave the nest - she just seems to want to spend time with them and respect their wishes), but that she changes plans on you at the last minute. That's not okay, and you should probably be addressing that, which is the concrete problem, instead of picking at how much she likes or doesn't like her parents. It sounds like you don't feel valued because you get shoved down the priority list when her parents express their wishes. That's what she needs to understand. Also, you don't have to love her parents, but if you're serious about this girl you ought to at least make an effort to like them and spend time with them, given how much she loves them.
