HELP! How do I tell my parents??

Tell them you have something to say and to not interrupt you until you are finished. Say you are pregnant and what your plans are for the baby, for you, for college, and for your boyfriend. Let them know you have done a lot of thinking, weighed pros and cons, etc. I'm sure there will be tears and maybe even hollering and threats, but you are an adult, and they need to respect you as an adult (as long as you act like one - lol).

Best wishes and congratulations!

I would make sure your bf goes with you first of all! Its one of the hardest things to do is to tell your parents when your so young! I was 20 and not married when i got pg with my first daughter! I just sat my dad down and told him with my bf what was going on that we planned on keeping the baby! We moved in together he had a great job and so did i! I was also still in school! Its was a little tuff for school but you can finish if you really try had enough and have great support behind you! My dad was shocked and happy all at the same time. I was the first child to give him a grandbaby! Your parents might say alot of things but in the end they will be there to support you! Sounds to me like you and your bf are doing very well and this is a happy event! Dont be afraid they can tell and that will just make it worse! Go in there will all the confidence in the world and tell them everything all your plans for the future and stuff! GOOD LUCK!!!!!

1. That I was a full time smoker til I found out I was pregnant. 2. That I have done drugs before. 3. Lost my virginity at 16. 4. How many people I've slept with. 5. That I started drinking at an early age. 6. The time I lied about when I was staying for New Years when I was a junior in high school. 7. Met a guy in person once that I met off the Internet. 8. Driven drunk several times, many of those underage. 9. What sexual stuff I'm into. 10. The times I had my boyfriend sneak into my room when I was 16.

It will be hard to tell them, but I think if you are going to be responsible for your actions and take care of this baby then they will learn to accept it. I think as long as you stay in school and graduate (even if it takes you an extra year) they will be fine with this decision. I think you should stay with your parents and him with his until you can support yourself and your child. I know on many college campuses there are day care center's you should look into these and see what they cost for students. I think your parents will be shocked and maybe a bit mad at first, but in the end they will forgive and forget and it will be okay..

Just stick to your guns and don't let them bully you into an abortion or adoption if that is not what you want. You 19, they are lucky that you 19 and not 15. Basically be calm and just say it..."I'm Pregnant mom and dad and were keeping the baby..."

As someone who knows, I wish you waited for marriage before you decided to do the Horizontal Tango. That's just me and my experience speaking, since STDs and the Rate of Divorce is ridiculous.

Still I praise you for having a Focused mindset to stay in College, bought your car or make payments for it, pricey they can be... I don't know how your Parents real react. It can go either way really. I do advise that you speak to them with Facts and always keep it simple, use KISS; Military Term of Keep it Simple Stupid. They might be positive or even negative about this. I hope their compassionate, since my own Sister had her first child in High School to the Goober; not the term we gave him, thanks Sis. It's best to think the worst and prepare for it. Like do you have a friend willing to let you crash, not your BF, but a Friend, since a BF would likely be the worst idea. Only real men deserve the title Father. I hope for you and the Child he does realize that baby's can be pricey at first, but do resist any urges to over-shower the Child with Gifts, since really how much stuff will the baby outgrow?

I think any parent hearing this is concerned about

You finishing college?

Who's taking care of the baby?

Monetary concerns (medical, food, rent, etc)

I think if you can answer these types of concerns and present a clear plan with your boyfriend, it'll help relieve some of the anxiety that your parent, no doubt, will feel.

Be prepared to be able to support your new family unit. Make sure your parents understand this. Good luck to you

I say you should slowly and carefully tell you parents about being pregnant. To prevent anything liek screaming yelling or even threats right away tell her that you are still doing fine and that you ahve accomplished so much already and that you will take care fo the baby!

Hun there is no easy way to say it i had to tell mine at 16 so could you imagine how that went down the only way to tell them is to sit them all down and say i have something important to tell you all and just say it there's no other way just explain to them that you dont want to change anything but your going to have the baby thats all you can do i wish you luck and hope all goes well and congrats on the bub

its going to be hard... how did you tell your boyfriends parents? just be honest and upfront with them, i was with my parents and everything worked out. They cant get enough of their grandson lol. Just tell them how it is... say "mom, dad... you're going to be grandparents" or go out and get something in the baby dept, that has grandma or grandpa on it. they may find it cute... it all depends on the relationship you have with your parents. if you are doing well in school, have your own car...etc. then they shouldnt be mad they are going to worry about you finishing school, cause that is a number 1 priority to them... getting your education. what do you plan on doing about that? are you two financially stable to support a baby? you have to think about that, do you have insurance that will cover doc appts, and medical bills, and everything the baby is going to need. just be upfront with your parents, honesty is the best policy

You have to remind them that you are an adult and you took the decision to make a baby, and that you will be on your own in a few months.

As you long as you don't expect your parents to help you financially, you are going to be fine.
