Yes tell them. You are going to need someone to stand by you right now and help you out. Your parents are the best people to do this for you. Parents do get angry and upset that their child is going to become a parent at an early age but they do get over it as well. Telling them now is your way of telling them that yes you might have made a mistake but you believe in them completely to be there for you and you didn't hide anything either. Just do it and get it over with. Good luck to you sweetie.

First of all you might want to pull your mom aside and tell her before your dad, because knowing most typical parents your dad is going to be a little more angry than your mom. Also your mom is also a female so she may understand more, you can talk to her like she is your best friend, because in this situation she will be, because she will help you get through it. Then you can all have a sit down together (you your mom and dad) and talk about it. As for the friend, you do the same thing, pull him aside and let him know and ask him if he will help you support the child. Abortion is something I have never agreed with, I don't feel the killing a living thing is right at all! Yes you may have to drop out of school but when you think about it, it's your own fault for not using protection. All I can say is that, and I wouldn't get an abortion. You could grow up to love this baby, why would you kill it? I'm sorry to hear you are having to go through this, I hope things get better for you! <3 good luck.

Yes baby girl, you definitely have to tell them. If they love u which I'm sure they do they will understand and be with u through this tough journey. A baby is never a mistake, just some extra responsibility to take care of. You will see how this will change your life in a very positive way. Having to know that u also have someone who will look up to u and love u regardless of who u are and what u do.
U may think it's tough telling ur parents now but it will be tougher if u don't tell them. U need someone with more experience to guide you through, remember it's no longer just about u and ur well being but for the baby as well.
This is real life situation thus don't stress yourself ur not the first to be pregnant at 14 and u won't be the last. Always look at things on the bright side of life and remember that "It's Always Darkest Before The Dawn" You will get through it just fine. My mom had me when she was 15 and she can't imagine spending a day without me and i love her very dearly.
I'm begging with u to let ur parents know u'll be surprise with the outcome.
P.S Don't ever exclude ur parents from ur problems no matter what it is.
One Love sis and if u need advise at any time please feel free to email me at Camara665@yahoo.com and ill be more than happy to be there emotionally.
Best of luck :)

As long as your parents aren't the type to beat you or kick you out on the street or anything you should definitely tell them. Even if you don't end up keeping the baby you will need their love and support. It would be much worse for them to find out somewhere down the road. I think I would be more upset that my children didn't feel like they could confide something that important to me than that they made a mistake. They will not be happy about it, but it's much better to be honest.

Well, who else would you expect to tell?
Unless you are independently wealthy, you are gonna need a boatload of help - - - be it going full term and becoming teen mom, or doing the adoption route or getting an abortion.
Anyway you look at it, you're screwed (twice, actually).
So, yeah, best to face the music and the folks.
Give them the facts, straight up and without tears.

yes, you need to tell them. This is a life changing time for anyone but especially someone so young. you need the support of the people around you. if your parents aren't the kind to be supportive, go to someone else you can trust.. like a family doctor, teacher, etc. it's important that you don't isolate yourself and that you realize you are not alone.

Yes, you do need to tell your parents. They are the only ones who can help you get through this without a lot more pain and suffering than you or your little one need.

Yes, you need to tell your parents. I'm sorry you are so young and are going to be a parent, but your parents can help you out. Good luck!

Hun you NEED to tell your parents. It's not going to be easy, you are still a baby yourself and are going to need them to help you with everything that is going on. Plus if you are pregnant you are going to need prenatal vitamins and you need to visit your doctor. Your best bet, you and your boyfriend (if he is around) sit them down together and just tell them. Be prepared they may need some time to "adjust". Good luck!
