well, there's a couple different options.
I myself am bi, but i'm not telling my parents. but my aunts are lesbians, and one of my really good friends is gay. so i do have a bit of knowledge about this.

here are the options i have for you, and you decide what you think is best.

1. You could straight out tell them, if they love you, it wont matter to them that you are gay.

2. Wait a while and tell them,(if you are afraid of how they will react, watch what they do, like, their thoughts on gay people. do they have any friends that are gay? or what? if so, that will help, because they are ok with gay. then again, there are those very religious people who are anti-gay, if your parents are like that, then my advice would be not tell them now)

3. You could not tell them, and try to hide it, but this i wouldn't choose that as your first choice, because eventually they will keep asking you why you don't have a girlfriend. (but this CAN work with people at your school, if when you go to college, you move away from where you live.)

4. you could totally shock them and bring home your boyfriend and say "parents, i just want you to know, i have a boyfriend"

It really just depends on your parents thoughts of gay people.
Also, if you are going to tell them and they don't really like gay people, i think you should wait until you are about to move out. like... 17 or 18 years old, because i have heard storys of people getting thrown out because their parents disown them for being gay.

It could go either way, and im sorry if my answer was at all confusing. if you have any more questions, just ask me, because i am here for you. Really, if you need anything, just ask!
I hope i helped, and good luck.
