You can use online exchanges which connect to your bank account / credit card just like paypal or amazon does. Once you've set up a payment method you can buy bitcoin with real money or sell bitcoin and directly deposit the funds into your bank account.
If you live in the US, Coinbase is a very nice exchange, but there's also a big list of other sites on the bitcoin website: https://bitcoin.org/en/exchanges
IDK what got you into a mess like that, but follow my instructions closely and you should be fine.
Convincing someone that you DON'T know something is almost impossible. I'm assuming that you've been tinkering with Bitcoins, and your parents are starting to get suspicious, right? ACT NORMAL. Bitcoins aren't recognized as legal tender in some regions, and commercing with them could lead to... issues.
The best thing for you to do for now is to export your wallet (see here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Cold_storage (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Cold_storage)) and hide the flash drive or paper (or whatever you put the wallet on) somewhere, preferably somewhere outside of your home. Uninstall your client, clear your browsing history, and be sure to securely delete related files.
What do I mean by that? Your files aren't actually deleted when you empty the trash can on your computer. Instead, it's just made invisible to you and kept on there for as long as possible, so that investigators can collect it later if necessary. You can use special programs to remove these files, however - personally, I use the UNIX shred utility (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shred_(Unix) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shred_(Unix))). But you're probably running Windows, so I suggest you use BleachBit (http://www.bleachbit.org/download (http://www.bleachbit.org/download)).
In any case, you can launder the wallet AFTER everything blows over.
What's the context? The more I know the better I can help you get away with this.

1 Bitcoin equals 1597854.68 Japanese Yen
This is helpful for those who want to purchase electronic products in Japan and basically nothing else

the girls simply need a j-pop shonen group to sing and dance about it (https://cointelegraph.com/images/725_aHR0cHM6Ly9jb2ludGVsZWdyYXBoLmNvbS9zdG9yYWdlL3VwbG9hZHMvdmlldy8xNzYzMDhlYjBkMzI4MjU4MjYyMjEyMGFjZjdhMGU4ZC5qcGc=.jpg)

Or maybe bitcoins would be more important if they grew flowers
A ?tamper-proof? currency wallet just got trivially backdoored by a 15-year-old Backdoor allows attacker to recover private keys stored on Ledger hardware wallets.

Does this mean the ledger had tampered entries that no one could have detected if the guy didn't say he tampered with them?

Ledger is the name of a USB bitcoin wallet. This hack lets people with physical access to your device change the software which runs on it, which could potentially be used maliciously

But seriously, tell them you don't know anything about it, then lose like a hundred bucks on it and say you quite. Hell, you can even pocket the cash and print fake loss statements if you want. They'll never trust you with their money again. Mission accomplished.
