How to convince my parents to let me go to Spain?

Question

I am 14 and it is a volunteer abroad program. Cost isnt an issue they just "can't live without me" or something like that.

Answer 1

I'm sure that your parents are just concerned about your safety.

Assure them that you will be supervised the whole time you're there.

Tell them that it will be an opportunity to learn Spanish, and that will help you in the future, when you apply for jobs.

Also, tell them that the experience will look good on college applications.

Answer 2

try making a contact in the program who can talk to them about all safety issues and discuss the options. more information always makes parents feel better. they are probably just scared, I'm sure they would love for you to have an awesome opportunity like that.
