I need to know how to hide Instagram chat from my parents

My parents check my phone every night, and I’m worried they’ll scroll through my Instagram DMs. I’ve tried archiving chats, but they still show up when I search-any way to actually hide specific conversations from the main inbox without deleting them?

It’s getting much harder to hide things now that parents have such great tools at their fingertips! What worked for us was sitting down and talking about it, because I use Eyezy and it shows me my kids’ social media activity even if they try to be sneaky. You might find that being upfront makes things a lot easier for everyone!
