How do you tell your parents you want a boyfriend at age 13?

As a parent of a 13 year old I can tell you that trust and communication is key to ANY relationship. Tell your parents in an FYI attitude that you like this guy and that he's your boyfriend. If they trust you than they'll probably talk to you about it and be ok with it. If not then they'll tell you it's out of the question and keep real close eye on you. From that point you can either do as they say or date him behind their backs. The main thing is that you are growing up and these are the things that teenagers do to gain the wisdom to survive in the outside world and todays society. A lot of parents want to prevent this making the mistake of thinking it's for your own good when it's actually hampering your growth.
