How do you let your parents know you're ready?

lol its not like that, a lot of my good friends are girls and may parents know it (partly because a lot of my friends are my mum and dad's friends kids). My parents are pretty cool but I suppose they still see me as a kid.

To all the people suggesting the "get a girlfriend, take her home" route, quite honestly I'd have more of a problem with that than my parents. It's just not how I've been brought up.
