genital warts are a cosmetic issue only. You can chose not to deal with them if you want to but you do increase the risk of transmitting them to a partner if you don't. I recommend at this point you see a dermatologist. Trying to remove them on your own at home is never a good idea. You risk spreading them to more body parts by doing that. Be seen and make sure these are warts and get them properly treated. Aldara cream is often useful at helping them disappear as well as keeping them from coming back.
when talking with your new partner, talk about your own experiences as well as std's. the rates of hsv2 infection in gay males can be as high as 60% in some studies and since it increases your risk of acquiring hiv, it's important to talk about it as well as you and your partners get tested regularly for it.
if you put a condom on when the clothes come off, it helps reduce transmission of hpv by 90%. This is for you and your partners to help protect you both. also ask your partners if they've had their gardasil shots. have you had yours?
as for talking about this with your parents, you are over 14 so they legally have no right to know actually. If you are still on their insurance they might find out since they get the bills but your college clinic should be able to deal with this for you without involving your parents.

Hi
I am answering the questions in the order you asked him (look for the questions marks).
Your school (assuming its a college) should provide you with medical adivce and provide care.
1) You should NOT just leave them alone, see a physican and get them treated.
2) See a physican and expect them to go over some possible soultions for this
3) Its hard to say, HPV (the virus that causes warts) usally cears the body in a year.
If you have an STD and are old enough to be having sex, then discuss this with your partner(s), for they are at risk for STDs, (penetration or no penetration with HPV).
I don't know of any situation were its better for your partners not to know.
