How to talk to parents so they'll understand 
Write your goals and plan ahead. 
Write down what you want to discuss and what you want to achieve. Plan ahead for what your parent's concerns will be and put steps in place to prevent their worries.
During this time, be as responsible as possible at home so your parents are more likely to listen to you. For instance, you may want to go to a party this weekend but your parents don't typically let you go out.
