Parent Visitor visa, tourism or visiting family?

So I am on my PGWP and just started working and I would like my parents from China to visit me. I have had people suggesting selecting "tourism" rather than "visiting family" for the purpose of the travel as it would simplify the application as it does not require documents from me. My concerns are if I put "tourism", in the application for my parents I would also need to put down info stating that I, live in Canada, so does that mean I am not fully disclosing all the information in the application? But if I put down visiting family then I am worried about my salary level and that I have only started working for 6 month.

I'm leaning towards just putting "tourism", so essentially my question is that is that bad to say they are here for tourism but they are also visiting their child in Canada?

Thank you!
