Bangalore: Due to their never dying love for the kids, parents often fear to let children go astray, especially when it comes to their careers. It is a challenge for any young entrepreneur to convince parents to agree to the idea of establishing a startup.

If convinced, parental support can be a huge motivational factor for any entrepreneur. Hence, convincing parents to say yes to your idea and support the company throughout is a major key to success. Readwriteweb has compiled a list of successful young entrepreneurs and the tips they spill to convince parents to support the startup and believe in the idea.

These are the tips to make your parents say yes to your startup.

1. Do not act impulsive

Parents are really matured and they do not like ideas which are very impulsive and superficial. Make your parents believe that you have though out the whole process and all the prospects of your business. Do not build castles on the cloud and be realistic about your plans. “Do not try to compare yourself to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram - those are the exceptions, not the rule, and parents know It.” says Kelsey Meyer, Vice President of Digital Talent Agents.
