Especially considering the fact that they don't know about him. And you have to think of the arrangements. Would he be staying for dinner or over night? Your parents aren't going to want to keep someone that they've never heard about overnight. If you would really like him to go home with you for Christmas then I would tell your parents about him and let them know what he's like and then I would ask them if it was alright first because you don't want to make the holidays stressful because you brought someone home. It's their house so you need to respect their wishes. And if they say that they don't want him there for the holidays then I would wait til they were over and suggest a dinner where they could meet him. Good luck and let me know how everything goes.
