Debt can be a difficult thing to talk about with your family, and many young adults in debt are fearful their parents will be disappointed and consider them financial failures. Whether you run a tight ship when it comes to money and are smooth sailing, or you've found yourself in financial trouble, money isn't necessarily a topic that's comfortable to talk about with mom and dad. What do your parents know about your financial situation?

My parents have no idea that I have credit card debt even though I have mentioned that a couple of times. They seem to think I'm doing extremely well! It's a bit uncomfortable to touch these subjects with them, though...but at the same time, I don't want them to think that I can afford EVERYTHING because I have no debt.
