Hi Everyone, I'm 15 years old and i think i am pregnant.. my parents dont know yet but I'm Trying to think of a easy way to tell them... the babys dad is willing to tell them with me but i dont know if i should allow him to be there considering that my parents HATE him more than anything in this world. If anyone anywere has any advice I'm All ears to listening!

So you think your pregnant, you dont know yet?? Did you take an at home test yet??? MAybe you should take a test fist before you make your parents all insane. I was 19 when i got pregnant but i was petrified of my parents too!!!! Strangely they were really cool and very helpful about it. Not all parents are like that, buttheres alot of people here who can give you lots of advice and are really supportive.
Welcome to the board.

No I havent yet taken a home test but i am waiting for my b/f (the father) to come talk to me about it... He's been real good about this hole thing..hes i guess a lil bit TO excited about this...i just hope after all of this has happened that hes STILL as happy..

Hey I know what you're going through...when I got pregnant a little over a year ago I didn't want to tell my mom. I didn't in fact, and it was the worst mistake ever. I did tell my boyfriend, the father and he promised we'd go through it together and all and my mom doesn't like him one bit. I didn't tell my mom I was pregnant until I started showing...which was when I was six months pregnant. In the end my mother was the one who supported me completely was the one there for me completely. Boys get scared sometimes and when you have no one else to turn to who better than your mother? =) If I were you, take initiative. Tell your boyfriend you want him to go and buy the pregancy test and be there when you take it. If it happens to come up positive, go to your parents. Tell them you took a home pregnancy test, it came out positive, and would like to go to the doctor. My mom was very supportive. She had her hour of yelling and being angry but I figure she's allowed it and in turn I did not fight or get upset with her. You need to do the same. They may get upset with you and say mean and hurtful things but you have to remember that this is coming as a very big shock and they are only worried and upset and they are allowed to be. Be strong and don't fight back and show them how grown up you can be about such a grown up situation. Best of luck and tell me how it goes. I just did this I know how you feel! =)

Again Thank you all for the support.... I'm not so much afraid of my mother i am afraid of my father..... he told me that if he found out i was having sex he would throw the guy in jail... and i dont want him to go to jail! I dont think that he really could send him to jail considering he's 17 and i'm 15. Thanks from the advice about telling my mom but you see i've been getting in to a TON of trouble and i am tired of all the yellin! All i want is them to listen to me adn understand.......... Maybe i should try talkin to my gram before anything........ ? I dont know

I hope everything works out for you and if you think that talking to your "gram" would be the best thing to do it then do so. I know that it's scary to tell your parents and my mom said that if she ever found out I was doing such a thing she would kill they guy or make him wish he was dead...which is the more likely thing she would do but she took it pretty well. Like I said, of course your parents are going to be upset no matter when or how you tell them. If I were though I'd quit getting in to trouble because it's only going to make the situation worse. They might use it against you saying look at all this trouble you've gotten and then talk about responsibility...you know how parents can be! =) Hope everything works out and take the home pregnancy test first. No use in putting yourself through the ringer if you're not pregnant. Try it out! Hope to hear from you!

AGAIN thank you all for all the help....... its HELPED ALOT....... i never knew that just talking on this would make things alot better!

um well i think the father should be there too because i mean its his baby ! no matter if your parents like him or not ! take me for instense i was 16 and i got parents and my mom and dad could not stand my ex boyfriend but at frist he was all for being there for me and he left before she was born havent seen him or even heard a single peep out of him but thats is besides the point ! the father was there for me when i came out and told my parents i was pergant! hope you good luck ~
