That depends on a lot...your age, are you old enough to stay alone, how long will they be gone, who will you be staying with while their gone. Have they ever left you alone before and what happened. But the important thing is why don't you want to go?
And have they lost trust in you for some reason.

That depends on a lot. Where they are going, how old you are, how long they will be gone, your reasons for not wanting to go, etc...
Have a serious talk with them about WHY you don't want to go. Try to be mature, and don't loose your temper and start whining.
If they are going out to dinner, but you don't want to be seen in public with them, just ask if you can go to a friends house and let them have some couple time. Many parents would jump at the chance when you put it like that.
If it's something important, like a company party where the families are expected to attend, just suck it up to adult responsibility. Your parents may not want to go either, but sometimes even adults have to do things we don't want to.
Whatever it is, ask them their reasoning for wanting you along, and explain your reasoning for not wanting to go.
Whatever the outcome, they are still the parents and you are still their child. They make the rules, and you follow or face the consequences.

Tell them you don't want to or make up an excuse. If you're at school say that you have a big project to do on toothbrushes and you only have today/this weekend to do it and it's going to take ages so you're too busy. Or say you absolutely promised your friend you'd go round to her house and console her becuase her boyfriend cheated on her/dumped her/yelled at her or that her parents are acting weird and she's upset. Or that she got really low marks in her school work and is asking her friend to help because you're so clever (don't use that one if your parents think you're stupid).

If it's just a day out (like shopping) tell them the truth, they'll respect you for it. If it's something that'll mean alot to them (i mean like a wedding or something) then go and enjoy yourself, you never know, you might enjoy it.
Do what feels right, x

How old are you? If you're 12, then chances are reasoning politely and constructively with them won't work. If you're 42, then you're a total saddo

well, they are your parents so most likely you are going to have to go whether you like it or not. We've all had to do things or go places we didnt want to at one time or another.. so just try to deal, it probably wont be as bad as you think!
