what should I do to convince my parents? HELP!!!?
I'm 14 years old and my parents sent me to boarding school last year. It was all their decision, not mine. I didnt want to go and leave my old school but I had no choice. I really hate the life in boarding school bcuz I dont have my own time and space. Besides, I dont like my new school at all. I tried to talk to my parents for a few times and they didnt even take it seriously. I'm already 14 and I really hope my parents can listen to my own opinons. what should I do to convince them to change school for me? thx :)

We don't know your parents, we can't know the answer.
You could always pull the "break down and cry" card though.
The rule when trying to convince someone to see things your way is usually to make them feel sympathetic for you, just keep that in mind.
The other rule is that it absolutely must not be obvious that you are just trying to earn their sympathy...
The best explanation i can come up with for that is: Usually this means that you must not feel sorry for yourself (or at least be able to look like you don't).
Pulling a stunt like that on someone who knows you as well as your parents though... that's hard.
