Tell them.  Sooner or later they're going to find out.  When that happens they may assume you were up to no good. Why?  Because you didn't tell them.  If you want any chance at seeing and talking to him then tell them first.  Besides, don't you want your parents to trust you? You trust your parents?  It's a two way street!!

Well you have to establish confidence with them. However, if you're Asian, then that might not be possible cuz Asian parents are strict, so you're gonna have to sneak out with ur friends and just stop caring what your parents think. (I'm not encouraging that, just saying that's what you would have to do if you want to have fun with your friends)

Tough one.  its very hard to change someones mind when it comes to race issues. Your parents are not necessarily racist, they may worry about how other people who are racist will treat you. I would suggest you have a heart to heart with them...ask if they'll meet him, and maybe his parents too.  But remember this...if you try doing it behind their back...it'll just cause trouble....show them how mature your being by being open and willing to discuss the situation. Goodluck.

Wee you need to let them know that you want to get closer. Parents tend to stay away if that is how they think you want it to be.  Try to spend more time with them. Go out to dinners, or make dinner for them.  Tell them you love them more and show respect. It may not happen right away, but it will.. Good Luck.

I was in the same boat.  My advice is to keep them happy, and tell them how much you're trying to get that job, or work hard at uni.  They wont stop, but at least they dont have too much of a reason to pester you.  After all, they are your parents and they probably just miss you - try not to cut them out of your life.  A sit down and chat session is reccommended: i had to sit my parents down and explain to them that im a big boy now, and to trust me to keep myself out of trouble and work hard.  They said they understand, but felt that they still needed to be parents to the baby of the family.  Keep your cool with them, they're only doing it cos they love you.

You didnt say how old are you, and what you mean about privacy and life by your own.\nYou have to talk, talk and talk, comunication is the tool to get everything you need. But to talk, comunicate and convince others you have to have very strong arguments.\nAnd as you want them to understand you and think about you, you have to understand them and think about them for a while, parents will be parents for their whole life, and you will be their baby, it doesnt matter how old you are, how independent you have became, or how strong you feel. \nGive them information, so they can feel the security that you will be ok, and that you can deal with the problems and issues you find in your way; so they can let you go easier. \nRemember they do whatever they do, because they love you so much, that you can't imagine, you will figure it out when you become a mother.

Got Parents ??? Use them, thats why they're there. Otherwise talk to a trusted adult. Don't rely on your friends for misinformation.

show them that he is a good person and how well he treats you, thats really all you can do, maybe if they see those sides to him they will lessen up on the issue alittle bit and not judge him by the color of his skin, but by his character and as an individual, if not then remember that you will always love your parents and will want them to accept whatever life choices you make, but they wont always like what you choose and it is afterall your life and you and you alone have to account for your own happiness....*good luck*

It's real simple.  Know your faith as best you can. Know what you believe deep inside, and then simply speak from there.  Speak simple, because that's about as much as they can understand, and I've always done it in English better than any other language, so . . . give it to 'em that way.  They might not like your answers, and be okay with that.  They're not always there to understand you.  They're most often there to argue with you and insult you.  Know that, give it to 'em straight, and realize, it's up to them what they do with it.  "You can lead a horse (nag or stallion) to water, but you CAN'T MAKE THEM DRINK."  You'll have done the best you can in the eyes of God, and that's ALL that matters.  God Bless you.

By showing them you are mature and responsible enough to be trusted. \nAlso, nothing beats a good nice coffee talk with your parents. Tell them how you feel and hear why they act that way. \n\nBest of luck!\n\n(Btw... Coffee for them, not you!)
