you have to serve someone a restraining order for 1 week

Another View: "YOU" don't serve the individual - the Sheriff's Office or a court officer serves them. If they purposely avoid the service of the order it may prove problematic because, legally, they cannot be held in contempt of the order if it cannot be proven that it was served on them.

HOWEVER- you can bet that SOMEONE knows where they are or where they work - call the Sheriffs Office and let them know. OR - or if they show up wherever you are, call law enforcement and when they arrive advise them that there is an outstanding un-served court order for this person. They will take care of having it served on them.

Can my parents file a restraining order against my boyfriend because the think he's not good enough for me?

You need a legal cause to obtain a restraining order. If the boy has been violent or threatened violence, or if it is a case where you are underage and he is an adult, so sex would be rape, that would give them cause to obtain a restraining order. They cannot simply take out a restraining order without cause.
