Answer 1

good luck with that. you will just have to be out with it and try not to escalate into an argument. I am 26 and married, I may be pregnant with my baby number 3 and I don't want to tell my mom!! how is that for Ironic? It is not easy when you are expecting a negative reaction no matter how your life is going! I hope you can think it through first and then chat or tell her just what you plan and don't argue it...tell her that is just how it is.

Answer 2

BABIES HAVING BABIES....how sad.....parents today either dont talk to their kids about s*x and birth control and they wonder why they are going to be parents all over again.....what a bunch of dumbasses, your lives r over :o( sad as it may seem but its true......

Answer 3

Just sit your parents down and tell them ASAP. Also, make sure your boyfriend is there with you for support. Your parents will be disappointed but should come around after they calm down. It'll be hard but good luck with everything.

Answer 4

just sit your parents down. Watch the Secret Life Of the American Teenager of advice too.

Answer 5

I was 16 when I found out i was pregnant and my boyfriend and I where nervous about telling our parents. We started out by telling them that " We have a situation, and being angry about it will not change it." We told them and although they where upset they eventually became excited and we worked through it. My daughter is 1 now and her grandparents and happy and proud.

Answer 6

I love how people are telling you to "sit your parents down and tell them blah-blah-blah", as though children called the shots in the home. And trust me, telling your parents something like "being mad at us won't change anything" is guaranteed to make them even madder. As will "explaining". Don't talk down to your parents. They don't need things "explained" to them, they already know a thousand times more about s*x and pregnancy than you do.

Do not prepare a speech. That's an insult to their intelligence. Just come out with the two words "I'm pregnant" and for God's sake be humble about it, not defiant or cute. Your parents are entitled to react in any way they react. Yes, I said "entitled". Their feelings count just as much as yours do. If they yell, scream, and cry at you for hours or days, you just put up with it.

If you're adult enough to have a baby, you're adult enough to put up with your parents screaming. It will be good practice for you. After all, your baby will scream and cry for hours at a time too. And you may be screaming and crying when your 17-year-old boyfriend decides he's had enough of a screaming baby, a tired cranky girlfriend, and no social life, and moves on to greener pastures.

Answer 7

Answer 8

Answer 9

Your parents may be more supportive then you think. I wsa pregnant at 14 and my parents were not as angry as I thought they were going to be.

Answer 10

tell them asap and let them know your plan of action on how you will keep it and your man will be supporting you, and also maybe think of how you will be able to pay for some of it and tell them that also.

Answer 11

dont take any longer to tell ur parents.

u don't want to hold back because ur parents will get more mad. hopefully they're supportive. u also dont want to wait more time before it starts showing. Just have them sit down with u and come flat out with it. starting now will prepare urself.

i hope u the best with everything and

hope this helps :)

Answer 12

You know how to tell your mom.  You are an adult. You convinced us of that. Why ask help from us when you have it all under control?  

The baby will be a cute fashion accessory when you are out strollin' with your friends. if they hang around after the first month.

Start making lists of all you are going to need to do, including get jobs, and find insurance.  The baby is a pre-existing condtion and won't be covered, so that will run you close to 10 K (thousand) dollars.

You will need to rent an apartment too and neither of you are old enough to do that. So I guess you live with your mothers for a few years more.

Answer 13

be sure that when you tell them, that your boyfriend is there with you to support you,

and cut straight to the chase.

Answer 14

it's only modern society telling you that your too young.

It wasn't so long ago marriages were arranged with girls a lot younger than 15.

I have more concern for the child.

I really hope you have the means to financially support the baby well.

Otherwise your just breeding more despair into the world.

Think harder on this one, it's a life changer.

Answer 15

you need to just sit your mom down and say "mom i have something serious that i need to talk to you about. im pregnant." then tell her that you would really like to keep the baby and just ask for her support. she will probably be mad at first, but then she will realize that she needs to support you and help you through this. good luck with everything!
