Seems like you're not asking the right people. Ask your parents why. They must have their reasons. Be open-minded towards your parents. Parents are not always right but hear them out. If their reasons are just rediculous (he's blond, fat, short, ect...) then just voice your opinion. If their reasons are serious (he drinks, too old for you, smokes) then you might want to consider what they're saying. Parents just want what's best for their children.

Hope this helped and good luck!

Hey Preppylovegirl. I'm an expert in that subject. My sister went through that with my parents and her HUSBAND's parents. The parents had a history of dissagreements and hatred but oddly for them, their kids grew up to like eachother. If you're religious, tell you Mom that it's God's way of bringing people together and forgive eachother. If you're not religious, tell her that you understand how she feels and you totally respect it but you feel like this fire between the two Moms shouldn't be put out on the kids. If you make your Mom feel like you understand her but you just don't feel like her reason for not approving of him is legimate enough, though she won't admit to you, she'll at least know deep inside that you are right. If you make it seem like you will not hear her out and you don't care what she says, this will only push her more towards keeping you away from him. My sister got through it by doing it this way. And if you think your Mom is tough, meet my Dad. He's the type of man that says, "it's my way or no way"! Eventually, my parents got the point and let them be. Now their happily married with two wonderful kids and those nightmare days had only made their love stronger for eachother. Now they know that they can surpass anything together!

If your parent's approval is so important to you (SHOULD BE), instead of fighting back, let them know that you understand and you really do care about how your Mom feels. Just ask them to give HIM a chance. You might want to find out why his Mom fired your Mom. Maybe his Mom had a good reason to. Maybe she was just doing her job. Get his Mom's side of the story too. You two lovebirds might just be able to make peace with these two lovely ladies. I personally think that dating on the DL is very immature. If you think you two might last long, sooner or later your parents will find out. They will try to seperate you and by this time you two would have already grown closser and your parents will lose trust in you. When trust is lost, you will lose other privillages as well and you will break your parent's hearts.

Hope I have helped you.
