Here is a little background of the situation. I am Asian and my boyfriend is American. My family sent me to study in the States when I was young and I moved back to Asia about two years ago. My boyfriend was married about ten years ago. His kid lives with the ex-wife, and is a junior in high school in the States. Him and I both live in the same country (I don't want to point out the country. The community here is kind of small.)

We've known each other for a good while, but when we first met, we were both in relationships with other people. It wasn't until May this year we finally got a chance to really get to know each other. We have been inseparable since then. I was a bit worried that his son might not like the idea of his dad dating someone much younger than he is, but after spending a month with him this summer, he has no problem with me at all and we get along very well. He even asked for my advice for girl problems. My boyfriend is a great guy. He is very caring and supportive. We are very compatible in so many ways, it kind of scared us both at first. This relationship is serious, and we have been talking about building a future together.

But, my family is some what conservative. They weren't too happy about me dating a white guy. I still live with my parents because I don't make enough money to get a place on my own. My dad freaks out at the idea of me staying over at my boyfriend's place once a while, which makes it difficult for me to say that I want to move in with him. We are planing on going back to the States to visit his and my families. Here is a problem: I will have to explain to my parents when they see photos of him and his son. I'd like to tell them before the trip this winter. How should I break it to them?

White boyfriend was divorced and has a teenage son. Don't know how to tell my conservative Asian family about it.
