how can i tell my parents that i gotr pregnant?

Answer 1

you have to be honest and up front and the sooner you tell them, the better. ultimately, they will just be concerned with your well being and what's best for you.

they'll probably be disappointed but admit that you messed up and that the situation can only improve by accepting what has happened and moving on for the benefit of all involved.

Answer 2

Depending on your age and educational level things could be different. If you are still in high school and living at home be prepared for the parental initial shock. Most parents do want to see that you have thought of all angles from a realistic perspective, and they don't want to being responsible for raising your child. What worked for me was to tell them "you're going to be a grandparent." Do establish a reasonable plan for completing your education, caring for (parenting and financially) for your child, and a reasonable time-limit to be moved out your parents home. If your boyfriend is on-board about having this baby discuss how he can contribute and plan on living together to make things easier (you can alternate who watches the baby so you both can work and/or go to school). Look into government resources such as WIC. The good news is that all parents to come around. It will be a shock initially that there baby girl is having a baby, just hold strong, they may just surprise you how well they handle it (my parents did me).

Answer 3

Ask them to go to lunch with you. If you're in a public place, they're less likely to blow up. Make a decision on how you want to handle it beforehand - keeping the baby, adoption, or abortion - and do a little research to make sure you've made a decision that you'll be satisfied with for the rest of your life. Then explain it to them very calmly, and explain why you made the decision you did. It will show them some maturity and give them a little more confidence in you, regardless of what you choose to do. If you choose to keep the baby, ask them how much, if any, they will be willing to help you. If you play your cards right, they will see how mature you are acting about the whole thing and will respect whatever decision you choose to make.
Good luck! Babies are hard work, but you'll never love anyone more.

Answer 4

Well, the best way is to make sure that you are all 3 together and by yourselves. Make sure you have no distractions such as t.v. or radio playing.
Sit them down and tell them what happened. Tell them how you feel about you getting pregnant, and tell them what you plan to do about it.. If you don't know what to do about it, then ask your parents "what should I do?" Most importantly you are going to need their support.
Don't be suprised if they get upset a little. After all, you are their child and they are still responsible for you, but now there will be another child to factor into their lives. But if you show your parents that you are responsible person and are willing to be mature about this situation, then the easier it will be for all of you.

Answer 5

Make sure they are in a good mood first. Sometimes it is better to tell one parent first (usually your mom) and then together you can tell your dad. Be prepared to answer some hard questions like, are you planning to keep it? How do you plan to take care of it? What about your education? This is not fun as I did it 11 years ago. You will make it through.

Answer 6

"Hey grandma and grandpa!" Just kidding. Seriously, I know this is a very scary time for you- I went through the same thing when I found out I was pregnant. The easiest thing is just to sit them down and come right out and say it. They'll be upset at first, but I promise it won't be as bad as you think. Believe me, I was ready to just pack up and find a new home. But now, 2 years later, my daughter is the light of my parent's life. Good luck and God bless.

Answer 7

You take a deep breath and say "mom and dad, I'm pregnant." They will probably tell you that they are disappointed and upset (I know I'd be if my daughter told me this...) and there might be some yelling. But ultimately, you need to tell them and they will get over it. Check out this website.

You have options. You are not alone, either.

Answer 8

I have just recently done the same thing...
you need to sit them down and tell them there is something you need to say.

Then just say it "im pregnant" make sure that if you want to keep this baby you have thought it all through and will have all the answers to there questions that they might through at you. Be prepared for them to be upset but give it some time and they will be fine!

I thought my dad was gunna flip but instead i assured him that we had thought it all through and this was what my partner and i want. Then before i knew what was going on he started crying!!! Now when he sees me he calls me mummy! LOL.

Just take it easy and it will all work out fopr the best. I wish you the best of luck and if need someone to talk to just email me on yahoo or
[e-mail]

Answer 9

Your parents might be far more understanding than you expect. Please tell them...you need all the family support you can get at a time like this. If you feel you can't tell them go to your school counsellor or your teacher or maybe the mother of one of your friends. People need to know if they are going to help you. It's not the end of the world.

Answer 10

You gotta walk up to them real seriously and say "Hey Grandma and Grandpa...I've got somethin' to talk to you about.......uuuhhhh, nevermind!!" then you just walk away. They'll figure it out and deal with it on their own, I bet they're intelligent people. Say that and then walk away, that way you won't have to deal with all the dramatic bullshit they'll throw at you. You have to chill and not worry about it, it's best for you and the baby.....they'll get over it and help you.
