how do u tell ur parents?

Question

ok i think that im might be pergent haw do i tell my parents

Answer 1

Don't say anything until you KNOW.
I assume you are a dependent, living with them.
I'd recommend going to the drugstore and buying a box of EPT (I'd actually get the generic version, it's wayyy cheaper and just as good). Once you know, be upfront....though difficult, telling them sooner is better than waiting. Plus you will need help in getting pre-natal care.

Answer 2

I would first confirm whether you are or are not pregnant. It is absolutely terrifying to tell them when it is an unplanned pregnancy. I know this from personal experience. Initially they will be shocked and may even flip on you a bit. In fact until it sinks in, they will most likely give you a hard time. I am telling you it will not be easy but in the end it will be a good thing. Once they warm to the idea they will support you. They cannot help being naturally excited to meet their grandbaby. I was so scared telling my parents and now 11 years later my son is the child they absolutely adore. I look back and realize that it is just getting the initial words out. Again, find out if you are pregnant first. Bring some support with you, sit them down and just say it. It is like a band aid. The thought of it is worse than the sting it causes.
You can also visit a crisis pregnancy centre. Just type in Crisis Pregnancy Centre and your area in the search engine. They will have counsellors on staff. You can do your test there and if you want them with you when you tell your parents you can have that support. It will be ok. Trust me. Once it is said you will feel alot better.

Answer 3

Well you sound like you are young and you still live with your parents. They will be upset so be prepared and this is because they love you and want the best for you so dont fight with them try to understand what they may be feeling and thinking sit down with them and tell them dont hide it from them the sooner you tell the better

second give them time because each day will be different they will be ok one day upset the next so you need to be patient

then you need to discuss a game plan with your parents your goals and how what kind of help you will need because once you have a baby you are no longer a little kid and if you are still in highschool you need to get through highschool then take it from there look for programs for teen mothers or young mothers

If you come to your parents in a mature way they will respect you it will be hard but things will get better and they will love there grandbaby no matter what and they will love you to

Answer 4

Ive been where you'r at and it's a very hard decision. I was 23 and scared to tell my parents, so I waited until after i had my child and i regret that. This is a very emotional time and you will need the love and support of your family. NO matter how angry they get, they are just suprised and disappointed and it will take time. Have a plan, tell them what your goals are and how you are going to obtain them. Also by being adult and upfront they will repsect your wants and needs more. Oh and make sure you are pregnant before doing all of this.
I waited until after the birth of my child and it was a big shock and it took my parents awhile for it to sink in and for them to realize that they were grandparents. He's now 14 and they have a great relationship, biut I could have handled things better. Good Luck

Answer 5

If your still a teenager your going to need your parents support, so be honest. First I would buy a pregnancy test after a week of your missed period. If it comes out positive, now would be a good time to tell them, before its obvious. If its negative, you should go ahead and tell them that you are sexually active so you can be put on some kind of contraceptive to prevent this from happening again. Your parent's love you, no matter how many arguments you may have had and only want the best for you. They may be mad at first, but once they calm down, and they well, you all can put your heads together and figure out what comes next.

Answer 6

This is something you need to talk about with your parents and get more information so you can make informed decisions about sex and protecting yourself. Have you and your Mom discussed sex? Have you had sex education? If not, there's no time like the present.
If you have had unprotected sex, the probability of pregnancy is definately higher, as well as a chance of getting an STD or even AIDS. Get a pregnancy test from the local drugstore, so you can be sure. If you are not pregnant, see a doctor so you can get on birth control and have the doctor check for STD's. If you are not responsible with your own sex life, then you are definately not responsible to care for someone elses entire life.
Talk with your Mom if you can, or find another responsible caring adult. Get more information (and some protection) so you can make better choices for yourself in the future.

Answer 7

I am assuming you are young and unmarried so very carefully. It also sounds a little better if you have some sort of a game plan for your future. So think about what you want to do, whether it be adoption, marry the father and keep the baby or just keep the baby. Let them know you realize the mistake and that you need their help and understanding.

Answer 8

just tell them, and if you are afraid, find another adult to confide in that you do trust and have them come with you to tell them. an aunt or uncle, your clergy, your school counselor, whoever you feel comfortable with and together you can tell your parents. and then please go back to school, you obviously need it and to be able to raise a child you will need a job, and you will need to give up all your freetime cause being a parent is a lot of work, 24 hours a day you will be responsible for that child, so if you are pregnant, you might want to consider adoption so that your child can have everything you cannot possibly give them.

Answer 9

first of all, take a test. there's no need in scaring your parents if it is unnecessary. then if the test is positive, just sit them down and explain that you love them, and that you need their help. don't make it sound like you are on your own on this, because believe me, you're not. when i got with my babies' father, my parents didn't talk to me for about 8 months, and when my momma found out that i was pregnant, we rekindled the relationship we had lost. she was even there for the bitrth of both of my kids! your parents' reaction will probably be different from what you imagined it would be.

Answer 10

Make sure you ARE pregnant first. Then just say the words.
I didn't have to tell my mother, she has a gift of being able to tell if a woman is pregnant by looking at her.
And that is what she did with me.
