How do I tell my Parents?
Here's the story. I'm 15, female, and don't know how to ask my parents if my boyfreind can come up to my grand parents house with me over winter break? My mom, sister, and I are all going up to my grand parents house and I'd relly like if my boy freind could come up with me over winter break in Febuary. I don't know how to ask my mom. It's nit like we'd even have to sleep in the same bed if my parents didn't want us to because my grand parents have a big house with plenty of beds. Only my mom and sister will be coming so it will be a little easier without my dad there. Please help.

Just do it. She'll probably say no, but so what? Just be nice and ask her. There's not really any other way to do it. I'd let you do it. Unless you were a nymphomaniac.

Well just ask! Tell them why and how you`d work things out with the sleeping.. But if your dad is one of those over protective type of guys then i`d just ask your mom with him not around.. ♥ Dez

Speaking from experience - it is extremely difficult to bring the topic of a boyfriend up with the parents - especially when it involves extended family. Before you ask your mom though consider these questions:
- how long have you been dating? This is a big step in your relationship.
- has he met your grandparents before?
- do your parents like him enough so that they could spend a week with him?
- are you mature enough to have the sex talk with your mom and assure her that you're not going to sneak to his room in the night?
If you're satisfied with these answers, go for it! Clearly your parents love this guy and know that it would mean alot for you to have him with you!

just say "hey, about February vaca..i was wondering if [boyfriend's name here] could come along. you can all get to know him better and i think it would be fun. he can sleep [come up with any idea BESIDES even in the same room as you. that will just blow it all for you.]" however you ask should be fine. you don't even have to bring up sleeping arrangements right away. my mom usually asks..well where would he sleep? right after if she is considering it. also if you would usually hang out with your sister it might be a good idea to say that you will hang out with her still. good luck!
