Answer 1

dont leave with your boyfriend. more than likely, he wont even be your boyfriend soon enough.

Answer 2

Ok, look at the situation as it is - you have a boyfriend who is willing to stand by you and you're pregnant. It's not the end of the world although it will make things harder and different from now on. If I were you, I'd sit your mum and dad down and say, "I'm pregnant and my boyfriend wants me to move out with him so he can take care of me." Appreciate the fact you will not be in the situation many pregnant woman are - alone and single after the father has taken off. Tell your boyfriend that you do and thank him. Make sure beforehand that you've seen where you're moving to so you are completely ok with it. I'd also suggest you leave the house for maybe a night or two to let your mum and dad come to terms with it. When you go back, explain you've got somewhere to go and you're going to make a good thing out of this. Good luck chick - don't let anyone put you down about this - it's happened but you can make a good life for yourself, your boyfriend and the baby :)

Answer 3

talk toyour parents 1st, of corse there going to be dissapointed but they probably will come round and support you in whatever you decide, mayb try tellin your mom that you think you may be and then do a test with her there, at least she will be more supportive that way than thinking you've hid it from her, even though it was because your worried of her reaction. I was 16 when i got pregnant and to be fair after a good talking to my parents were so supportive it was unbelievable. Anyway im 19 now and have my own business but yet still do all the childcare myself, i just want you to know that when people say your life is over, dont listen, your life is what you make it and i made mine a success, you can turn this into a positive thing. All the best x

Answer 4

Don't listen to your boyfriend. If you go and try and live with him, your parents will just go and force you to come back with them, making the situation even worse. You are a minor, you can't just pick up and leave when you want too.

It will be hard, and yes their reaction is not going to be cool. Most parents wouldn't be happy if their 15 year old daughter was pregnant. But tell them. You are going to need them for support of all kinds during this. Don't wait much longer, just sit them down and tell them, and let them be angry or upset. They get to be.

Answer 5

It depends on how your parents are. you told that their reaction isn't going to be cool,so it's better for you not to tell them that you are pregnant! I don't tell you to be mean, but just "take care of it" as soon as possible! you're still 15, so think about your future, you still need to finish high school, go to college and work. You also need to talk to yourself if you are mature enough to become a mother, raising a child isn't so easy and if you're not ready, the child's future will be in risk too. Do you want that?
About living with your bf, i suggest you not to do it, it seems that your boy isn't very responsible, if he's responsible, he'll ask the permission from your parents. I've ever been pregnant and then living with my boyfriend for 1 year, believe me, we got a lot of fight because of that anf finally we broke up.
But, anyway.. the choice is all yours. i hope you can make a good decision for your present and future hun!

Answer 6

I was 17 when I got pregnant. I told my parents over the phone...I went to stay with a cousin for a little while after I found out about the baby. I wanted to give them some room to come to terms with it before going back home. If you have someone (NOT your boyfriend!!) who you could go stay with, that's always helpful. Are you afraid of your parent's reactions? Their initial reaction probably won't be good--their little girl's going to have a little one of her own. But they do love you and in the end will be there for you. Don't run away with your boyfriend; I did that and he ended up in jail and left me alone, but I'm back with my parents now. The love your parents have for you is forever. Just remember that. I'm 18 now and 6 months along and my parents and I have a wonderful relationship.

Answer 7

Well it is good that you sound very mellow about this whole situation. But, that is not the case. You should tell your parents, and they will fine out soon enough with all the symptoms. But, honey running off with your boyfriend just isnt the answer. Believe me, hopefully he stays with you but most guys just leave when they find out your pregnant. Just sit down and think rationally about all of this. And, I am not sure if you are a Christian or not, but you need to ask God's help and pray for him to give you guidance. Believe, me it helps. And, please tell your parents, I am sure they will still love you for eternity. And, remember if you put yourself in there shoes, wouldnt you want to be told.

Just think before your actions~

Answer 8

Believe me it's best to go ahead and tell your parents. They can only be mad at you for that one day they want be mad the whole nine months. It take some time to grow on the them. You have to look at it this way you are their baby and they don't want to see you hurt or their grandchild. They are hurting just like you. But it they kick you out of the house then that's when you pack up and go move with your boyfriend. But right now you need your parents and they need you. I had my son at 15 and I broke my mom's heart but we got through it. And at the end my son's father wasn't around and I really needed my mom and step-dad on my side. Never bit the hand that feeds you always remember that. And good luck with your baby. And remember to keep your head up. And I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Answer 9

You should not go live with your b/f! Your parents wouldn't be cool with this? What would you expect?- "oh sweetheart, I'm so happy that you're pregnant at 15 y/o! I'm glad that now you will have big problems in your life finishing your education".

If I were your father, I would be sorry that this has happened and I would be disappointed in you, but I would love you with my whole heart! I would want to do whatever I could to help you make the best out of what has happened.

Can you say the same thing about your b/f? What is life going to be like for you and your baby if you go to live with your b/f?
Your pregnancy has ended your girlhood. You now have the responsibilities of an adult woman for you and your baby. At 15 y/o, I think that you need your parents help to meet those responsibilities.

One thing that that means is that you must make your decisions based on what is best for your child, not what is best for you. Would it be best for your baby, for you to live with your parents or your b/f. I think at 15 y/o, the decision must be that it is best for your baby for you to live with your parents.

I care about you and want what is best for you. Unless you have terrible parents, They want that too. One advantage of staying with your parents (besides finances) is that they have more maturity and more life experience than your b/f, just because they are older. They can use this extra life experience to help you.

I pray that all works out the best for you. I don't know what your relationship with our Heavenly Father is, but I assure you that no one loves you more than Him. No one is more understanding, more forgiving, or more wise than Him.

I have had some terrible problems in my life over the past 8 years. I would not have been able to deal with them without God's direct interventions as answers to my prayers and the assurance that He will always be there for me.

Maybe this is a time for you to talk with Him about any problems that have occured between the 2 of you and for you and He to become friends again.

I assure you that He wants to be your friend and more. He is your Heavenly Father. God bless you honey.

Answer 10

HA i can see it 2 15 yr olds raising a baby paying for rent and having jobs i doubt about this part but u should be going to school and ur under 18 ur parents r still in control of u my god

Answer 11

Of course tell your parents!
Imagine if you have a girl and in 15 years - she gets pregnant - doesn't tell you and runs off with her "boyfriend"? Think of how scared you would be. What goes around comes around.

By the way- trust me, you going to WANT your mom! When your in labor, the only person you are going to want is "mommy" I dont care how old you are (15 or 40). And when you cant sleep at night because the baby has been crying for 4 hours straight, your going to want "mommy" too - not your man, because even your mans breathing will annoy the crap out of you.
I'm 21 with a one year old - and sometimes when my mom isn't around and my daughter wont stop crying, I say outloud, "I want my mommy!"
