I went to University at 18, and I don't remember my mother setting any rules other than "be safe".
Our parents teach us to use our judgement, and at some point they have to trust us to do so, but be there for us when we mess up.
I messed up a few times, and only a couple did I ever ask for help. I hope my daughter in her turn is wise enough to ask for help when she needs it and has good enough judgement by the time I send her out into the world.

And deep beneath the rolling waves,
In labyrinths of Coral Caves,
The Echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand;
And everthing is Green and Submarine
