Sit your parents down when their are no distractions. You're not going to get anything from your parents if you chase them while they are on the phone or something. Sit them down and speak in a conversating tone. No whining at any point. Tell them "I have been a good son. I have not done druges, I have not gotten in trouble with the cops..." etc. Mention how this school has better rules and is better educationally. Stress that you want to accel in your education. Then calmly say how you feel, and how you feel that you are being treated unfair when you have been a good boy and haven't even been given so much as a reason as to why you can't go to school. Use "I" a lot, to express how you feel, not arguing and pointing fingers saying "you...". And make sure you tell them, when you sit down, that they are not to interupt you at any point. Ask them to hear you out first before they reply. I've done this before and it works. Especially if you are somewhat professional and respectful about it. In the end though, they are your parents, and you must respect their descision.

perhaps if you were spelling things such as "trouble" right they wouldn't see a problem with it. They are just doing what they think is best for you, respect their judgement.
