I would say yes.....your going to have to tell them sometime. Just find support in other people if your parents take it roughly. Good Luck

Yes, you should definately tell your parents.
I know that being 16 and dealing with this must be very scary, and I am sure you are scared that your parents will be upset or disappointed in you. Let me assure you that if you tell your parents, they will be there for you to support you and help you in every way that you need. They will be a shoulder for you to cry on if you are scared, and they will be able to answer your questions and give you information that you may not be able to find on your own. They will help you find a doctor and everything you need.
If you are too scared, have your boyfriend or a close friend tell your parents with you. Take a deep breath and do it. You will be so glad that you did. Your parents love you and want to be there for you through everything that comes along, especially with you being as young as you are. The fear of coming clean will only be temporary, and the support they will give you will be worth it.
Good luck!

Yes - you should tell your parents that you are pregnant. At first your parents may be upset because you are only 16, but overtime they will come around. They may surprise you and not be upset and be there for you throughout the whole pregnancy. If you do not tell your parents now you will make it harder on yourself. You need to tell your parents because you and your boyfriend are still young, and right now your boyfriend may be there for you, but you never know what will happen here in the next 9 months and you will need the support of your family. The sooner you tell them the better. Good Luck!!

Yes gurl plz, i know your scared as hell, but plz tell them cuz its hard raising a child on your own even with a boyfriend things get tough and your parent will be there to help you tell them before they find out another way, lets say your boyfriend is gone (god forbid he leaves now), and youll be all by yourself taking care of a baby that cost about 16,000 a month, who will you need your parents sweetie tell them its the best thing to do
I hope everything works out for you

The best thing you can do for yourself is tell your parents. Just because your boyfriend's parents know, that does not mean they are going to take an active part in your child's life or what him to. We are living in those times where parents are not the best role models of boys when it comes to making them responsible for their actions. You have to know that. But you are still the responsibility of your mother and father, and if you love and respect them, you would not just spring a baby on them after nine months of hiding it. They will be responsible for that child, too, ultimately because you are still a dependent yourself. Do the right thing and talk to your parens, please? They will be angry and disappointed, but NO ONE loves you like your parents do. Besides, you will need your mother through this entire process to help you emotionally more than anything. Dont rob her of that chance to help you.
Please talk to your parents.

honey, that belly of your is gonna be growing from now on, and they are gonna find out anyway, so you better tell them now, and not have them find out by someone else. I know is scary but you have to, take responsibility and do it. You need to go to the dr, get prenatal vitamins, be checked (since you are very young they sometimes consider this a high risk pg) Just do it for your own good and your baby's. Probably they are gonna be mad and upset at the beginning, but you are their daughter and they are gonna love you and support you no matter what. Good luck hun.

They're going to find out sooner or later, so you might as well tell them now before they feel like you betrayed them by waiting. I was 17 when I got pregnant, and even though they were downright evil about it, at least I was the bigger person and told them. The most they can do is kick you out; in that case, go to your local cabinet for families and children and they can help you with anything you need.

yes cz there is no other way cz what will u do if u wont tell them , but b4 anything let me tell u it was wrong to get pregnant n u r too young for it , u had to wait 10 yrs later , but what happened happened so u must tell them so things can be solved but if u can get rid of the baby do it so u wont have to get such responsibility n u r that young so try it if it's safe if not , i am sure there will b a solution n to get it start with the 1st step n tell ur parents.

take a seat them down and say this, "mom, dad, I even have something to tell you...(long pause) I robbed a financial employer and shot the protection shield interior the technique, purely kidding i'm pregnat, you would be grandparents, ask your self. in case you do unlike that concept arise with something stupid to take the ask your self element away. perhaps some kind of music. carry a chum with you in case you extremely worry them hitting you. they are in all probability much less probably to be violent in front of a chum. sturdy success.

The longer you wait the harder it will be and pregnancy is not something that 'goes away' and eventually they will know as your belly will speak for itself. It does not really seem fair that your boyfriends parents know but you are leaving yours in the dark-this might piss them off. So take a deep breath and tell them today!!!! Good luck
