So I'm a college freshman this year, and I started drinking since I went to college.
I do it in a responsible manner, and would never let it hinder my grades.
I know my parents would be very dissapointed if they found out, but I have to tell them. I hate keeping stuff from them.

I've decided I'm going to tell them. I just don't know how, or what to expect. So I guess I'm looking for advice on how to break it to them, and if anybody has done it before...how'd it go?

To like clear it up, I don't have a emotional relationship w/ my parents so that I could talk to them openly. This is huge for me...and they also see me as their golden child, which makes it even harder to dissapoint them...

Why do you feel the need to tell them something useless? All that would do is tell them something that would otherwise not affect them.

So what's the need to tell? Your a adult.

there are some things, believe it or not, your parents do not want to know.

blahh they'll get used to just let them know your doing it responsibly... i dont see why you have to tell your parents... you only feel bad cause society wants you to feel bad.
