Christ tells us in the Gospel of Luke 14:26 that if we do not love Him more than our parents and family - and even our own selves - then we cannot be His disciples.
So you are right - if we try to please everyone, including our parents, we can never truly follow Christ.

I was born in a Taoist family and in my teens accepted Jesus Christ, making me the only believer in my family. My traditional parents were very upset especially my mum as she strongly against me moving into Christianity as she claimed why do I goes against her to become a Christian, isn't it contradicting in one way when we disobey our parents, it doesn't pleases God but if I pleases my parents, I will never be a believer. Nonetheless, I know God still love the perfect me because when I am down and needed his guidance in a lot of things, he will come forward with an offering he gave to me. To me, is enough, do whatever God wanted me to do in my best possible way
