Well first of all, make sure its the right move- the worst possible thing is to tell your parents before you know its true for sure.

And secondly, if you are sure, the best way is just straight up telling them.
A good tip I heard is doing it when you go out to dinner, so they are inclined to not make a scene and think about it for a while.
Or you could send an email/letter to them if you really aren't up to telling them to their face.

i know that when i told my parents about being gay i made sure that i was 100% sure of it... secondly i didn't do it at the same time... i told my mother first, then my father... i'd tell the parent that u are the most comfortable with talking to first, however if u tell one be sure to tell the other... it's better for them to hear from u than to hear from someone else!

I agree it is better to tell the parent that your trust the most and that parent can help you tell the other parent ans help iron things our for you.

I also agree that you should wait until you are 100% sure that you are bi before telling your parents. There is no reason to be in a hurry to tell them or put a label on your self that you might out grown later. It is better to not do something now that you will regret later.

i'm not sure how old you are.. so i'm gonna assume you're not curious (most people are..)

Just tell 'em.. as long as you know your 'rents won't kick you out
