Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
Your boyfriend has to understand that you guys are at totally different stages in life right now.
Your priority should be school at this point in your life. Your next priority? Preparing for post-secondary education, whatever that may be.
Living with your parents gives you a ton of freedom. You don't need to deal with all the crap that comes with living independently; rent, paying bills, getting groceries, cooking, cleaning, etc. If you were to move in with your boyfriend, you would need to start taking on these responsibilities.
My suggestion is to wait it out. You want to have a chance at independence for a while before moving in with someone else. Things may be changing in your relationship. Over the next few years, you're going to change a lot as a person, and you shouldn't be locked into anything.
When you're 19 or so, and you've had a shot at living on your own (or with friends), if you still want to move in with him go ahead! You'll be able to handle the stresses of maintaining your own place, so all you'll need to deal with is the stress of moving in with someone (trust me... it's stressful).
When you move in with someone, you see the good, the bad, and the really ugly. Make sure you're ready for that and that you can handle it when it comes.
