I understand that your parents' opinion is obviously very important to you, but remember that it is your money, your life, your experience. I would contact the Greek office at your school and see if they have a parent pamphlet. Try to find out why your parents have these opinions of Greeks and expose them the positive aspects that you've discovered though your "research." If your parents value your opinion as much as you value theirs, they will make an effort to understand.
