If you want to keep the baby whether its to keep or for adoption you should walk up to them with confidence and with the knowledge that you did something irresposible and tell them you are pregnant and plan on giving this baby life (again even if it is for adoption). If you choose abortion which i STORNGLY DO NOT RECCOMEND then you could just go to your local teen pregnancy location and have it done all with out them ever finding out, but just know that the preceedure is very painful and can cause numorus mental issues like depression and anxioty. I would just tell them you are going to see this baby through till it's born and then make the decision of your life. Just remember that you canopt for foster care where the child knows you are "mommy" but you can't have total control until you can support your child on your own. And there is the option that you get to stay in the child's life acting as Aunt So-n-so or cousin So-n-so. there are plenty of options and you should have a disscusion with your parents.
Now if you are nervious b/c you think they will kick you out there are places where you can stay for free while you are pregnant and you will get all the care you need for free. so again talk about your options with your parents.

Well I would tell one parent at a time. Choose which one you get along with better (maybe Mom) and tell her you have something very hard to say. Your scared and need her help. Maybe before that retest yourself there's an off chance that the test was a false positive. If it doesn't go the way you want see and counselor. Good Luck!

Girl, that's the easy part. Just come out and say it. What's done is done now. So there really won't be a need to get upset and angry. After that, then is the time to sit down a come up with a plan on how to handle the situation. Good luck.

well, I have been in your position. I had my first child at 18 and it was very scary having to tell my mother about it, because I knew she would be disapointed in me and she was. When I told her she wasnt angry but sad and disappointed about it. But after we talked and things calmed down, she was fine with it and became very supportive. But you really need to tell your parents, so that you can start getting prenatal Dr. Appts so you have have great prenatal care, to help with having a healthy baby. Or you need to tell your parents so you can all figure out how you are going to deal with this, ie. Adoption, Abortion, or raising the baby and what that will entail. Good Luck to you,

Ask an adult you respect to sit in if you want -- tell them as soon as possible. It's not the end of the world at all. There are many options--adoption being a great one if you are not ready to be a parent there's plenty of people wanting to adopt. Just bite the bullet and tell them unless you're afraid of physical abuse in which case best to tell a school counselor. Good luck and God bless -- I'm a mom of 2 and trust me I would take it in stride although my kids probably think I would not.

Just sit them down and tell them you have something very important to tell them and that you love them and then just tell them that you took a test and that you think you might be pregnant and that you should go see a doctor to make sure. they are you parents they might be anger at first and upset but they are your parents and they love you no matter what and they will help you anyway they can. good luck.

Wow, well say "Mom, Dad you know i screwed up...and i got pregnant. I didn't mean for this to happen. But, since i was grown enough to lay up i am grown enough to take of the child." You have to be straight honest, because let's keep it real they are going to be pissed and feel like strangling you. But can you blame, but it is not all your fault because it takes two tangle. But, you have to be strong,and tell them, because we can give you all the advice in the world, but in the end it is up to you and your parents. I hope it all works out, and who knows this baby come become something great. Hopefully the new president of usa because boy do we need it. LOL. God bless you! Also does the guy know, is he willing to take care of the child?

How did you manage to have sex and not tell them? I would be open and honest. They will figure it out and know really soon. Better to tell them now. You need to get health care right away. Then can't help you if you do not tell them.

If it is too difficult for you to talk directly then you can do by writing a letter and giving to them to read. And dont let go of that boy who is the father.
