Hemorrhoids or signs of colon cancer?

I’m a 16 year old male and I’ve recently been experiencing symptoms associated with hemorrhoids/colon cancer. There is blood when I do a “number 2”, but it is not very much. It started a few weeks ago, and I haven’t noticed any change in the amount of blood (it’s still not very much). The blood is a bright red, which is supposedly associated with hemorrhoids rather than colon cancer (blood associated with colon cancer is more commonly a dark red to a black color). I am also 16 years old, and it is supposedly very unlikely for someone my age to get colon cancer, but not impossible. I have also experienced fatigue, but I’m assuming this is because I get up early in the morning for school on weekdays, (5:15), and not because of blood loss. My family has no history of colon cancer (that I know of). I’m nervous about confronting my parents to talk to them about it, and I would like to avoid it if possible.
