If your parents’ information is pretty good, you have been to many developed countries, your job is stable, and your household registration is not in a sensitive area, you can apply for a visa to visit relatives.

But if your parents’ own information is good, you can apply for a visa. If the defects are more sensitive, such as the passport is white, or you are working as an individual, or your household registration is in a sensitive area, etc., it is recommended to apply for a tourist visa. Even if you have immediate relatives or friends abroad, it is also recommended to apply for a tourist visa because you are visiting relatives and friends. The information of both domestic and foreign parties needs to be checked, while the travel application only checks the information of the domestic applicant.

When applying to visit relatives and friends, both the foreign and domestic information must be good before the application can be approved. As long as the domestic applicant's information is good, it will be approved.

If the applicant's information is poor and there are friends and relatives abroad, it will seem that there are people abroad to accept the application, so the poster has two options. You can consider it. If you are applying for the first time, you must handle it with caution.
