Introducing Your Friends to Your Parents - Do's & Don'ts
>You Do
Feel free to add something interesting about your parents when you introduce your friends to them. You might say, "My dad used to play third base too," or "My mom had Mr. Caldwell as a principal. She said he was mean back then, too."
>You Don't
Assume your parents are simply going to go away once you've made your introduction. They are going to want to get to know your friends.
>Why
When you lead the introduction process, you get to control the conversation. That way, there will be a much smaller chance that unfortunate topics, such as your bad report card or girlfriends, will come up. It is good to be in charge, once in a while. This can be the moment when you really impress your parents, and your friends.
