How long have the two of you been back together? That would be a big thing. Are you sure that two of you are going to stay together?

Listen to your parents though, listen and see what exactly their concern is. It may just be they are concerned that he may not stay in their life and its going to be harder to get him out of your life if something happens if the girls have his last name.
