How should I tell my parents this?

Question

I'm 13 and I still wear tighty whities because I go shopping with one of my parents..they seem to be unaware of boxers and it's quite embarrassing for me to talk to them about getting boxers not briefs. How should i do this to prevent embarrassment? I want to buy boxers, not briefs. Thank you.

Answer 1

Ask them to let you buy your own clothes.  These things are a part of life, trust me it probably won't be the most embarrassing thing that ever happens.  Besides if you can't talk to them about this what will you do when you have a serious issue?  

Answer 2

Boxers aren't too expensive.  You can go to the store and buy them your self.  Or the next time you go to the store, you show one of your parents (it's easier with one) the boxers isle and explain to them that this is what I would really like to wear now and that's what boys in your school wear.  They will likely get the picture when they see the variety of boxers that is offered at the store.

Answer 3

hehe my little brother had the same problem. I told him to just tell our mom that he doesnt like them and he wants boxers. So he just came out and said that he wanted boxers. I also told him to tell her that boxers are better for boys...they let boys breathe down there. So before you go shopping tell her how u dont like them and want boxers. Just come out and say it to her...but make sure you say it before you go to the store so you dont have to talk about it in the store

Answer 4

Just say mum, i wud feel more comfortable in boxers.

Answer 6

maybe next time you go to the store while your mom or dad is getting something else just tell them that you are gonna go get your underwear and you will brb. and then pickout the ones you want. if your parents dont want to buy them then maybe have a uncle or someone buy them for you. or you can simply just ask your parents im sure they will understand
