how do i do this?

Question

ok my cousin came up to me yesterday crying her eyes out about how to tell her parents she's pregnant
she wants me to help tell them
but how do i help her
what would i say

Answer 1

She really should tell her parents herself. If she were my daughter, I would much rather hear it from her own mouth.

You can be there to emotionally support her throughout her pregnancy. She is going to have a hard time with the social stigmas seeing as she is so young. Just be there to love her and support her. It's the best thing you could do.

Answer 2

Tell her that it is her job to tell them, unless your comfortable telling them. She is probably scared that they will be horrible mad at her. But if you tell them they will get over the shock before they talk to her. Just be glad that she wants to tell them. It is really help full to have your parents around when your pregnant. And what ever she decides to do, its her body and they can't MAKE her do anything she doesn't want. Make sure you tell her that. That will make her feel better.
Good luck.

Answer 3

i think u can help just by being there and maybe starting the conversation off for her..i had a really hard time telling my parents with my first baby too and my sister came with me for support..it helped alot

Answer 4

I take it she is a teen mom and not supposed to be having sex? I think the best thing is jsut to say it, they may be upset but what is done is done and more then likely they will be so happy when the baby is here.

Answer 5

there is no other way to come out and tell your parents but to do it unless yo ujust wait until your showing or if they ask. most parents can look at their children and know!
