 In my opinion, you should not push to meet his parents. It might make your relationship worse. The reality is, you might be a wonderful beautiful woman. However, old fashion parents might not want their son involved with an older woman especially one with kids being that it is alot of responsilibity. I think you should let your b/f feel comfortable enough to initiate the meeting himself.
Also, stop putting negative thoughts into your head. It will only drive you to stir up arguments with him, which you obviously do not want. Take it easy, if he did not love you he would not be w/you!

 He probably just doesn't want to deal with the hassle that may develop when he does tell his parents. It may not be due to any embarrassment of you. You can always ask him. In any case he'll have to tell them about you sooner or later so he might as well get it over with.
