relax, (dont swear) and be yourself! i know it is really daunting but dont try and put on an act because they will see right through you and wont get to know the real you. i still feel a bit weird meeting and being around my in laws and i have been married 3 years! it is natural to feel like this so just calm down and trust yourself. you arent going to say anything stupid or do anything to embarrass yourself if you just relax. at the end of the day it isnt them that you are seeing so does it really matter at the end of the day? i am sure if you are open and natural they will love you for who you are and if not, they'll get over it and do you really care that much? (also, if no one is good enough anyway, youre not going to win so just let them see the real you and you never know, they might just like you!)

Be your true self. Be polite, honest, sincere and offer to help with whatever you can. Parents will see through BS, but if you just act like yourself, I think it will be ok. Also remember that he's their son and seeing him grow up in this fashion might be a little tough for them, that's why there is sometimes friction... its hard for parents to accept that their children are growing up. Hope this helps, good luck, you'll do fine!

Preoccupation will trip you up. Be yourself. Polite. Answer her with eye contact. Smile naturally. Make compliments that are genuine. She will love questions about her "precious" when he was a little boy. Keep your hands where they belong! Not too much affection, but a hint shows warmth. Let your guy know of your trepidation and enlist his help.

Be polite, conservative, and pleasant. You'll do great if you just relax and try to enjoy your visit. Ask to see baby pictures - his parents will enjoy showing those off. Compliment his mom on the outfits he wore as a kid or the birthday cakes she made....etc...stuff that you see she did in the pictures. This may be a way for you to show her you recognize and respect her role in your boyfriend's life. good luck!

Be honest, and be yourself.
...also polite. Be very polite. They appreciate that sort of thing.
Oh, also avoid sneaking off to their bathroom to have sex. That's something you'll definently want to avoid. Trust me.

Dress like a respectable young lady and act like one. Just be yourself. He likes you alot and he wants his parents to like you also. Just calm down and know that he likes you alot.

Just be yourself. That's who your boyfriend likes, so that's the girl he wants his parents to meet!
As for clothes, ask your boyfriend what he thinks. but avoid cleavage.
