I try to be as honest as I can with my parents. I cannot hide anything from them, even if I try to; I know I would have this guilty conscience inside of me that I'd eventually need to let out, as well as what I was trying to hide in the first place.
I understand how much my parents want to know about what I do with my life and my decisions. After all, I'm not above them. They've taught me everything I know. And it would be unfair of me to keep things from them when it's as factual as anything else that they care about what I do.
To be honest I'm not really hiding anything from my parents. I tell them everything I do. They know I go on PC, they even know I'm a mod here. They know about secrets I've kept in the past that I was glad to let out of my system. And they have no problem with it. But I know very well that I have to proceed cautiously with the kind of trust they have for me.
