I'm 4 weeks pregnant and I'm only 17 how do i tell my parents?

I was teen when I went to my mom...blv me I was SCARED..didnt know how to tell her. I asked my bf to be with me for support. My mom was acceptable in whatever choice I made (this occured in the '80's) I chose to keep the baby.

Now zoom to the present, a few years ago my daughter became pregnant. I assumed, by the way she was acting, subtle changes in her that I noticed, I knew something was not what it should be, I approached her, asked her if anything was wrong or upsetting her..she broke down and cried telling me she was pregnant. After we both calmed down from the all the crying etc. I told her she had two options; adopt or try to raise the child on her own. Finishing school was her main goal at that time. B/c she wanted to finish school, and I didnt have the finacial abilities, I suggested she go to a teen home for pregnant girls where she could complete her education, have the child etc.

She did not like the options I suggested, she ran off to live with her grandmother, eventually went to the teen home and her aunt(my sister) adopted the baby(open adoption, she is known as B-mommy). It all worked out.

Depending on the communication leval you and your parents are at. If u have a really close relationship with one of your parents, take auntie or bf even both for support and talk to that parent. By that time you have a great support system to get thru this.

Hope this helps.

I think first you need to talk to your boyfriend about this. decide what you two are going to do about it as a couple, remember that this baby is his too. If you two decide that you are going to keep the baby, then you should discuss what this means for the two of you (aka marriage, cohabitation, shared custody, adoption, etc.). Once you have made up your minds TOGETHER, perhaps your aunt could give you some guidance on breaking the news to your parents. Oh, and if you are planning on raising a child with your boyfriend, his parents need to know too. I'm sure that you're very scared right now and worried a lot about your future. I wish you the best whatever your decision. I hope things turn out allright in the end.

I would ignore what the previous person said and do not get married if you are not ready. My mother got married at 19 just because she got pregnant, she had 5 other kids for my dad and then he turned out to be an *** and they got divorced and she was left to raise 6 kids alone. I would definetly not recommend marriage unless you were together since you were 11 or 12 and know each other very well and were intending to get married any way, pregnant or not.

Do you rather should be a youthful unmarried mom? raising a infant with likely a distinctive guy or woman than the father? would you be waiting to get a suited coaching, and shelter the infant and raise it appropriate? think of of all those issues...toddlers are high priced, and time eating. Do you rather should have the infant? do no longer think of approximately your thoughts, think of approximately what style of existence the infant would have... now it's time to be extra mature than you have ever been and dollar up. Do you rather think of at your age, you are able to end college, then circulate to college finished time, whilst working (with a view to pay for the infant) get a stable interest, purchase a house, purchase meals for your self and the infant, purchase diapers etc? that is not as elementary as you're able to think of, those are some extreme inquiries to think of approximately. don't be selfish and placed across a infant into this international without thinking those. Then possibly communicate on your mom on the subject of the assumption of abortion...THEN smarten up and initiate utilising secure practices!

Tell them now.I wouldn't have your aunt tell them.It would be in your best interest to tell them yourself.Parents don't like to hear this sort of thing from someone else!You could ask your aunt to join you when you tell them maybe,but I don't think letting them know you told her first would be such a good idea.Don't try to come up with any lame excuses.They've heard them all.Listen to them,this time.You seem to have missed something important before. And as to whether you love each other or not,you may think you do,but I doubt it, very very much.You are definitely NOT ready for marriage!

well their anit no easy way to tell your parent that your pregnant im only 16 and pregnant i havent told my mom yet all i did was came up to my mom and said mom what would you do if you found out that i was pregnant she said i would kick u out of the house i cryed. and i know how u feel i cant tell my mom either and im just to scared but at least your aunt is their to help you out and just when you feel you are ready to tell your mom tell her but make shure she is in a good mood or just write her a letter and tell her

there r many things you could do:

tell your parents, wait till they stop flipping out on you n hear what they wanna do with you.... bcarefull sumparents will even kick u out jus 4 ur lil mistake...

you could look for sum money and u know the rest... if you dont want it... it will change ur life completely.... even how ppl will look at u no matter if ur good or bad... they'll always make u look bad.

make ur lil bf deal with this problem too dont put it all to ur self... he was there to "play" so now he gotta "pay"!

think about it. think of the future. ask urself what do you really want. dont do anything that will make you regret it....

You never know how a parent will react w/ this situation no matter how they've handled other ones, the best thing to do is TELL THEM NOW, the longer you wait the worse it is. Just go and get it over with. No need in over annalyzing how to go about it. Just tell them

the is no EZ way to tell your parents, I was 21 & married when I got pregos with my dougter & was scared to tell my parents. The bast thing to do is tell them now & if your aunt already knows then maybe she can be there with you. BUT it is beter to tell them now just to get it out there you are gonna have a lot more to worry about & you don't need this streesing you out...

GOOD LUCK

Ask your aunt to tell your mom and your mom to tell your dad if you don't want the baby give it to some one who does if you do give it away don't look at it after it is born or you will not be able to give it up... Trust me (wink wink) Tell your parents right away or the baby might suffer. If I where you I woulden't tell your parents about the details becouse they might get mad again trust me.

I hope this helped
