The important thing for you to do is tell them as soon as possible. I don't know your parents, so I don't know how they will react. They're going to be upset no matter what. However, I can only imagine the the reason they would be really upset would be because they really wanted more for you and are worried about you.
I remember when I was in high school and pregnant. I know how scared you are right now. However, my parents weren't as angry with me as much as they were worried about me.
I have a 14 year old daughter, and if she came to us and told us that she were pregnant, it would be very upsetting. However, I wouldn't be angry with her.
You made a mistake honey. You're just like any other person - you're human.
Your parents need to know right away though. Belive me worrying about it is worse. Once you get it out, then it will be over and they can deal with their feelings and begin to help you.
Please don't wait.

well you are just going to have to be honest and tell them. try to find a time when its just you and them no other distractions and tell them you want to talk to them....count on them being shocked, hurt, angry, confused, concerned for you, scared etc. all the things you are feeling but they are also worried about you and your future. expect a big blow up at first, tears, yelling etc....its normal human emotions when faced with a life changing situation like this but more than anything trust them and confide in them....they love you and want only the best for you and they will help you decide what that is. hang in there, having a baby is not the worst thing in the world, the timing isn't great but its not the worst even at your age. i have a friend who was in exactly the same situation many years ago, her son is now 25 and the light of her life but she wasn't close to her parents at all and when she told them they threw her out, pregnant, just turned 14 and now homeless. a pregnancy group took her in, clothed, fed, housed her and she finished her education over a time, they also helped her get a job etc. eventually she and her parents reconciled too. just remember you are not the only 14 yr old who had ever gone through this and will not be the last, you will make it and your baby will too...all will heal in time.

Just sit down and tell them. don't be writing them a letter. I know they will be shocked and cross at you. But it's happened and needs sorted now. Get a teacher or other member of the family to be there when you tell them that means you and them will both have support and be able to get on with what you want to decide to do. You have to decide what you want don't let any one bully you in to something you don't want to do. Look in yellow pages for L.I.F.E Support group they will help you and your family from you being pregnant to the birth of your baby and help beyond that. Good Luck .

I would sit them both down together, tell them your very sorry this happened so soon, but you can't change things now, and tell them "I made a mistake, and now I am pregnant" tell them you are not going to ask for their help, but it would be nice if you had it. Your still their little girl, and their still your parents, they will find out sooner or later, but make sure when they do find out it's from you. Best of luck!

Calm down don't stress yourself. I sympathies for you. Poor girl.
Well first I would advice not having sex till your 18 but since you've already done it you should tell your parents or the results will be worst if you don't. You should also tell the baby's father.
This is probably the wrong thing to do but if you really don't want to get in trouble tell them you were raped.

Yes. Tell them as soon as possible. You are going to need all the help you can get. If you think they might be abussive towards you, tell a school counselor first and ask him/her to help you tell your parents.
Being pregnant is a serious matter and you need medical attention to make sure you and your baby are healthy.
The best of luck.

It would be best to tell both parents. Sit them down together and get right to the point. Better tell them now before you get to far long.

First, you ask yourself, "why did I have sex at the age of 14?" Then, tell your parents the answer to that question. You must have a good reason.
You should look into getting an abortion.

well the best thing to do is to come straight out and tell them the truth. You should have been asking them what you could be doing to prevent it from happening if you were sexually active!
