how do you tell your parents your pregnant?? i'm only 15?

Question

my parents hit me a lot so i'm not sure how to tell them without getting hurt or getting them ANGRY....

Answer 1

Might I suggest finding someone you can talk to about your abusive parents because no parent should be putting their hands on their child and make them afraid of them. Secondly have someone else tell your parents you are pregnant to avoid any physical confrontation. Best of luck to you hun and I wish you all the best. You are in for a long rough road but I am sure if you stay determined you will make it through.

Answer 2

The best thing to do is to just be clean and honest with them. Sure they are going to be angry at first and maybe for a while, but they aren't going to be angry for ever because what's done is done, they can't change what has happened in the past. All they can do is be there for you. Maybe they won't be happy and make this your responsibility but then again they might help you out. Think about if your going to keep the baby or not because you are still young and need time to figure out your life. I am not telling you to give the baby away because everyone needs a home and a mother, I am just saying to choose if it'll be the best decision. See if you tell them later the harder it's going to be and you will eventually lose there trust, and they won't believe you for a while because trust is hard to gain, easy to lose, and even harder to regain. Just tell them and say that it was a mistake and you know it but being clean about it now will make things easier in the future. I don't exactly know what to say about you getting hurt because this will make them pretty angry, but when they are angry they shouldn't beat on you because everyone makes mistakes. I am sorry I can't help you out with that, but if it were me I would be open and honest about this whole thing. I hope I helped and I wish you luck.

Truth is, they will get angry no matter what. Their little girl pregnant? Maybe thinking in their point of view will help you and your parents be on the same page which could calm them down. But you know your parents better than I do. But don't try baking them brownies or something like that, too obvious. Tell them you have to talk and just lay it on them, don't try to put it off...unless you want the baby to tell them. Brace yourself because you can't undo pregnancy. They're going to be angry no matter what. Sorry, but they will be dissapointed. There is no way out. Hopefully, the first blow will be over quickly once your parents realize there is nothing they can do. I hope this never happens again. Best of luck.

Answer 4

i'm sorry to hear that your parents hit you. Have you talked to any body about this? You really need to wait it out for a while and talk to some body. I'm sure you don't want to get your parents into trouble, but it's a crime what they're doing to you. You probably won't show for a few months, so in the mean time talk to some teachers at school to get you some help or go to a family member or a friend. If you need more help feel free to e-mail me, I used to be a police dispatcher so i can help with advise. Take care and next time there is abuse, please call 911, especially now that you're pregnant. The punishment for hitting a pregnant woman is a lot higher, it's actually a felony! Please e-mail me if you want help.

Answer 5

Hi. Your parents will almost certainly be upset, and they have a right to be. But I have worked with many women, and in almost all cases, parents do come around. And most parents dote on their grandchildren. Talk to a crisis pregnancy agency first. Do this for several reasons. One is that they will either go with you to tell your parents, or they will tell them for you. They can also provide support and backup if your parents try to hurt you in any way. Whatever you do, don't have an abortion. Abortion is DANGEROUS. It can also drive a huge wedge between you and your parents that can last for many years. Don't make the current situation any worse! And it could cost you your life. And don't let them force you to have one. That is abuse. Good luck. You'll be OK. 15 is not too young to bear a child. You will need help with practical problems. The crisis pregnancy agency can help you.

One other thing. I am a mother who learned that our son had fathered a baby out of wedlock, and I can tell you that he is a precious grandchild, for whom I am very thankful! I am so glad he is here! I am grateful to his mother for having him. And I got to babysit him and comfort him. That was the thrill of a lifetime!

Answer 7

"Hey im pregnant." They are going to be hurt and angry no matter what you say. But they will come around and help you out about a month or 2.

Answer 8

First of all, if your parents "hit you" then go to someone that you trust, like a friends parent or a family member that won't judge you. Don't keep this to yourself, you will want what is best for your baby!

Answer 9

Answer 10

OMG, It's tough. Just be honest. They might seem angry at first but hopefully it will pass. i take it you are still in school. Do you mean hit like beating or do you mean whipping like discipline? You need to talk to a couselor NOW. You need to tell them though. i'm so sorry you are going through that. But please talk to someone who is closer to you. an adult.
