僧祇律云。淨飯王請佛。今後父母不聽。不得與出家（此因羅睺羅不告出家故）。何以故。父母恃子為榮故。佛於是制戒。父母不許。不得出家○五百問經云。出家者王法父母不聽。為得戒否。答不得○楞伽經云。父母不聽不得出家。

> The Mahāsāṃghika Vinaya states: King Śuddhodana petitioned the Buddha: "From now on, if parents do not permit it, one must not be granted pravrajyā." (This was because Rāhula left the household without informing him.) Why so? Because parents rely on their sons for glory. The Buddha thereupon instituted the precept: if parents do not allow it, one may not leave the household. ○ The Sūtra of Five Hundred Questions states: "If someone leaves the household when the king's law and their parents do not allow it, do they obtain the precepts or not?" The answer is: "They do not." ○ The Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra states: "If parents do not allow it, one may not leave the household."
