[edit] Steps

  1. Wear decent clothing, nothing too revealing,you want to make a good impression on them by being respectful to everyone around you.
  2. Do not wear any baggy clothing, as it makes you look like a slob. If you want to be comfortable, try clothing that fits close to the body so you're not completely tight, and don't wear anything too tight either.
  3. No swearing. Parents hate it, in fact most adults probably won't like you if you cuss.

  5. Don't get in trouble with anyone. Act innocent and be like a perfect angel, even if you aren't.
