How to tell my parents ive decided to become vegetarian??? help me pleaseee?

how can i tell them? recently (like 5 days ago), i have decided to become lacto-ovo vegetarian, for my health, the environment, and the animals. i went like 4 days w/out eating meat/animal by-products or anything coming from dead animals, and no one noticed. but my mom noticed today that i was not eating meat, and started yelling at me and said if i became vegetarian id be in HUGE trouble, and how vegetarians eat fish (which,they dont,she doesnt know what shes talking about), and how i was gonna die if i ate that way and how it was unhealthy and whatever. ive done tons of research on it beforehand, and im pretty positive that i can survive this way. i just cant eat meat anymore. it disgusts me. and its cruel, in my opinion. i know i have to let them know eventually, but how do i do it? can they make me eat meat? i wont do it. im 13 by the way... please, serious answers only, i really need help....thanks to all who answer. (:

3 days ago
by the way i can cook for myself (:

i was about the same age when i went vegetarian, if not younger(im i6 by the way).

first i don't really tell them, i just went along with everyday activities, and at first they didn't notice(or probably didn't really care at the time), after a while they began telling me that i have to start eating meat again, bcz i wasn't getting enough of the protein, vitamins, etc. that i need(bcz i was young), but im absolutely stubborn so i suppose u could say i won the battle :D

though they still tease me by asking me if i want any, i used to get really angry and upset and say no, now, i just say"no thank" or "screw u"(in a joking manner), but it' turned out alright, although my father still thinks i should at least fish, but i disagree, or probably just my stubbornness, either way, they're going to find out eventually, just explain to them the reason why u want to do this, do ur research, let them see it from ur point or view

any who, good luck to u man
later
p.s.let me know the outcome :)
