How should I tell my mom that my sister is pregnant?

Question

My sister is 1 year younger than me, 'm 14 and she's 13. My mom plays mommy and daddy in our lives and I think that not telling her will be like a slap across the face but I don't want my sister to think that I snitched her out because I do love both of them but I don't want my mom to find out to late and including that she does so much for us. I'm scared because of what my mom might do. :'''''''( Please help

Answer 1

No, it is not your place to tell. As bad as you want to - you need to let your sister make the announcement. I wish you and your family the best...

Answer 2

I think that you should definitely tell your mom. Especially with the fact that your sister is going to need to see doctors to make sure that her and the baby are okay. Usually when teens get pregnant and don't tell their parents, they have no medical care at all and that is a great risk to both the baby and your sister.

your sister might get mad but she will understand. She is going to need your mom now more than ever so that your mom and her can discuss her options. I am a mom and I would be very upset if my 13 year old was pregnant but overall I would be there for her and the baby. I would help her decide on adoption, abortion, or keeping the baby. That is my job as her parent and I'm sure your mom will feel the same. Please tell your mom. It is in your sister best interest to tell your mom. Good luck.

hopefully you and your sister have a strong relationship. she needs someone right now to be by her side, she is probably so scared. you should take her planned parenthood and talk to a counselor. they can give her another pregnany test and confirm that she is definitely pregnant. they can tell you where to go to get prenatal vitamins and see a doctor, which she MUST do. then, hopefully they will give you advice on how to tell your mom and maybe even counsel a session with your mom. whether your sister wants to keep the baby or not, your mom must find out. she will find out eventually, and the sooner the better, so you all will have time to work things out. whatever you two decide to do, just remember to stand by her. you are her older sister and hopefully she respects your input. please dont let anyone pressure her into anything or put her down for getting pregnant. there are people in this world that cannot conceive a child, and no matter what your sisters age is remember a child is a blessing, truly a blessing.

Answer 4

I dont think you should tell your mother yet. If anything support your sister. Be there for your sister and figure out when it will be a good time for your mother to know. Your probably the only person on earth that she can count on. You sister should decide when it will be a good time for her to tell your mother. Understand that she must feel ready when the time is right. Be there with your sister when she tells the news to your mom.

Telling your mom is nothing to what the real obstacles that might be coming up. I hope that your mom gives your sister full support even if she made a mistake.

Answer 5

Would you rather be called a snitch or sit back and not allow the baby receive the proper prenatal care he or she needs? I think you should tell your sister to write your mom a letter if she's afraid to tell her. Having a baby is very serious and important so prenatal care and family support is very important especially because your sister is so young. Eventually, your mom will find out because your sister will start to show. So, let your sister know if she doesn't tell her, you will because you care about the welfare of her baby and her. Good Luck.

Answer 6

you need to tell her and quick because there is things your mom can do to help her but after so long she wont be able to do anything and she will be mad at first but she will be able to help your sister and that is what your sister needs
it is very hard for a kid to raise a child and takes everything you have when you are an adult
so tell her your sister would probably want you to because she doesn't want to do it herself
sit your mom down first and tell her it is very important
and get her to sit back and relax
then tell her you have to tell her your sister is pregnant and needs her help but she don't know how to ask her
make sure you tell her your sister needs your moms help then come out with she is pregnant

Answer 7

First of all, why should you be the one to tell mom?It would be much better for maybe the three of you to sit down and discuss this.Try and get your sister to look at this realistically.Mom can't help if she doesn't know and time is ticking.What does your sister want to do?Be supportive,but in the end,it's your sister that will have to decide.

Answer 8

This is a difficult question to answer. As a parent i would be hurt, angry if my 13 year old daughter was pregnant. I would feel that i failed as a parent at first but i would still love her. i think you need to convince your sister to tell your mother and if she doesn't, you need to be as honest as you can to your mother. you might try telling your mother that she and your sister need to have a talk. Yes, your sister might be angry with you but, nothing is stronger that a bond between sisters and she will forgive you. As far as being afraid of what your mom will do, don't worry, your mother will come to terms with the pregnancy. After all, it's going to be your mothers job to help raise the little one. Additionally, your sister needs to start seeing a pediatric doctor to make sure both your sister AND her baby will be OK.

good luck and don't be afraid of your mother's reaction, remember, she IS your mother and loves you both.

Answer 9

tell your mom in the present day, your sister needs to work out a doctor suitable away, and your mom needs to speak on your sister approximately refraining from intercourse for some extra years. that's, regrettably, by using a loss of solid parenting on the area of your mothers and fathers, they could have supervised your sister extra advantageous, and taught her to no longer be having intercourse at 12 years previous!!

Answer 10

Thats a really serious situation...
Please listen to me though
She may get introuble your mom might cry.
But for the baby's sake you need to do what is best for your sister and her child!
Something could also go wrong with your sister not just the baby!
Please tell your mom!
She might get mad but think of what kind of risk your taking not telling you mother!
let me know what happens.

Answer 11

I hate to sound cruel, but it's up to your sister to tell your mom... the hard fact is... she was old enough to make that baby... she's old enough to take responsibility of her actions!!! Like I said, I don't want to sound so mean, but there are too many young people doing things that they are emotionally (and really physically) ready for!!! Also, abortion should NOT BE AN OPTION!!! That makes me sick, how people can use it for a form of birth control!!! It's a baby..... not just an inconvenience!!!!
