The first answer to your question is correct in some aspects but in others is wrong. The parents are the ones that are wrong, for in the bible Jesus says "let all children come to me, for the Kingdom of heaven belongs to them." So now that you know this verse, who is wrong the parents or the child. I recommend that you share this verse with the childs parents, for they are wrong and if they dont choose to follow Jesus, thats inbetween them and God. Their child chooses to follow God and she is right and not the parents. So if she wants to follow Jesus their parents should let her.

Find another way around her parents. Telling someone the whole truth about Christ is the most important thing you can do. Pray and ask for the Holy Spirit to provide plenty of opportunities. Stay on your guard though. You are probably being watched by her parents also. Make sure that you are being intentional. Do not give up easily. I hope this helps.

Pray first of all! And trust! God is in control of everything. Yes we are to honor and respect our parents but don't forget that God is our father too! He doesn't want problems for this girl and her parents but he does want to see her in Heaven! Continue to witness to her and share the scriptures with her. It is unfortunate that we can be persecuted in our own homes but it is true! Pray that she can reach her parents through this matter and the will too come to know Christ!

Here's what you can tell that someone to do (and You can do this too):

Have UnConditional Love and Peace by accomplishing this:
Create Your Relationship with Our Creator.

UnConditional Love and Peace is the only answer.

Pray for an opening, a softening of the parents hearts, and take solace in the fact that if parents forbid something she is almost certain to explore it on her own at the first opportunity.

Exodus 20:12 Honour your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

As a child, she must do what her parrents wish in these matters. She will have time enough as an adult.

Go Ahead and get Born-Again---it may cause some Trouble for a While (Jesus came to bring a Sword between members of a Family)
but Later, the Rest of your Family will get Saved cause GOD will use you to get to Them!

It is kinda' a Spiritual Law thing!
A person opens the Door to their Family for GOD to move in by Getting Saved (spirit Recreated by Asking Jesus to Come into their Heart (spirit) and Save (Recreate them).

If the person in question is still a minor - then you don't have any rights to supercede the parent's wishes in this regard. You cannot tell a parent how to raise their children when it comes to matters of faith.

Ah, mind your own business and don't push. Let the person make up their own mind. If they are under their parents' care, don't interfere. That is just not right. If you want to speak to them outside their home and you don't make them feel uncomfortable, then give it a try. Mention it, but leave it at that. Let the seed grow at its own pace. Don't push. Pushing is the best way to PO people.

Pray and let God work it out.
It is not my place to teach anyone and go against their parents' wishes. God will provide a way somehow.

If someone wants to know Christ bad enough, he/she will do it on his/her own. I am not needed.
