Default Parents will kill me if i got a street bike

Ok so i want to get a street bike once i get a little older... Im 17 right now and in like 3 years i plan on buying one. My parents already talk about or mentioned how they dont want me to ever get a motorcycle.. They got me a dirtbike not to long ago and are worried that after riding the dirtbike i may get tempted to get a bike for the streets.. I know that this is something i want to do when i get older. I know that it is dangerous and it is only because the other drivers around you make it dangerous. My cousin has a street bike and he crashed it. It wasent his fault, these girls in a jeep where flirting with him when they drove by, and then they purposely went and cut him off to joke around and there back end tapped him and he went flying.. NOTE: never were a big necklace when riding, when he went down his necklace was through his neck..not like real deep but it cut through it badly.. ANYWAYS, i know the risk and im willing to take it. Did anyone else have to get through there parents when buying there first motor cycle?
