He is an amazing guy and VERY supportive regardless of his family life he has still managed to help me out with my work and any other problems I've had.However, in the past he's been excluded, been a drinker and has smoked, because of the stress at home. And since I've dated him his parents have been "worried" about him dragging me down. But I continued to date him because he hasn't pressured me to do anything and he's been trying to change his life around.But his parents are still getting int he way of us two, to the poin where his dad came around my house and told him all about his son to my mum!His parents are saying one thing and my boyfrend is tellingme another and I don't know what to believe!Then his mother sent a text message threatening me to stay away from his son and I'm a "selfish little girl" after I've improved his attendance and helped him get better grades.And my mother found out, they get into a heated arugument and they don't want us to date each other anymore. But I care for him so much and I don't want to lose him cause he's done things for me that no-one else has, he even got a scar on his lip trying to defend me! But no-one seems to realise how happy we are together. So i had to end it due to the pressure of my parents and his parents, but we still like eachother a lot. Is there any way things can work out or anything I can do to make our parents realise how happy we are together? Help!

I fear you must believe them as why should they or why would they lie. You do not say how old this guy is but I feel he may not be worth the effort.
He needs to sort his own life out first and maybe cannnot deal with anyone else until then?
You on the other hand must have exams due and a great potential to do so much with your life. Your parents come the heavy hand because they love and want what is best for you. In most cases they are correct. You are still very young emotionally and have so many other things waiting for you!
Stay cool for now an djust see what happens, please be tolerant toward your folks!
