First of all its not up to your parents to tell you if you can date or not. They probably can't wait til you bring your first boyfriend home. So what if he only soeaks another language. I think it will be fine if you bring him home! Ask your parents first and then maybe just invite him over during the day first if you think that inviting him over for supper is bit too personal to begin with.

Ask them first, always ask them first. If you bring your boyfriend suddenly, your parents will be surprised and it'll be a very awkward situation. Explain the situation to your parents and your boyfriend so they can all be prepared. Also, you need to ask your parents first to make sure if they are ok with it and if they aren't to convince them. If they weren't ok with it, then you could be in so much trouble if he just suddenly came. I hope I helped.

go ahead and ask your parents if you can bring your boyfriend around before a date some time, that you'd like for them to meet him. play translator for a while if you need to, then enjoy the date with your bf, and ease away any awkwardness

honestly i would talk to your parents. mention that you are seeing a guy. you would really appreciate it if they'd meet him. maybe have him over for dinner one day. or if you feel that is too much. just before you two go out on a date or whatever have him stop in. meet the family. explain to your parents beforehand he only speaks english. so if they have any trouble understanding him i'm sure you could translate. try to make it as comfortable as possible for your boyfriend and your parents.

Just ask them if a guy that you are intersted in can come over, tell him that they only understand english and im sure that you can translate for him and hey at least you dont have to worry about them embarrasing you.. lol :) Good luck!

You can't just bring him home like that. No way. You never know what could happen. Ask your parents. You are 16 so it's understandable and it sounds like it isn't going to be awfully common for guys you date to speak their language. Just teach him how to say a few things to them to break the ice and have them approve and make sure you ask for him to come over in a nice understand manner. good luck

Do NOT just bring the guy over to your house. That has the potential of becoming a real disaster (embarassing for you and your date). The only answer as far as I can see, is to talk to your parents and explain everything (language issue as well). This way there are no surprises, and the situation has a far better chance of passing smoothly.
