Having a partner that's unapproved by your parents when you haven't gained financial independence is like a kid asking for a toy it wants while dad/mom says "no".
You cry, nag, and become upset over them (or the situation). However, deep down what's truly upsetting is that you know perfectly that there's nothing you can do. Perhaps we're more upset over how hopeless we felt; instead of simply towards out parents. The unfortunate fact of this is to see that when everything we possess is a "given" from others, we don't truly have a say in the situation cause we are at the receiving end. We are the beggar. As unpleasant as it sounds, it is true.
Now are we mad at our parents for not allowing us to get what we want , or are we upset with the fact that we are forced to face our own incompetence?
If we wish a comfortable life with the help or aid of our family, we have to realize that it will never be our sole decision to do certain things. It will always going to be all the "stake-holders'" decision. That is until you buy yourself out.
The moral of the story? If we want a life exactly to ourself, we must build a life ourself.
