Speak to your girlfriend first and explain to her that she needs to tell her parents. Don't go behind her back and do it, this is something you should do together.

Well first i think that u should talk to your gf and try to tell her that it is the best thing to do and if she disagrees then u should tell her parents. I guarantee her parents will be very happy that u had the balls to let them know that their daughter is pregnant. If she hates you after that tell her you did it because you cared for her and loved her she will understand. I'm only 13 i have seen this before with one of my older friends who moved because her parents found out she was preg from her bf. Just tell her parents if she refuses to. it will help a lot
Good Luck!! = ]

The baby is the biggest consideration here. She and the baby must have proper prenatal care. If she is not doing it on her own, then I would take her to the doctor. It's not her baby. It's both of your baby. You are the father and are responsible for providing the best life for the baby that you can. In vetro health is just as important as check-ups after the baby is born. In some ways, it's more so.
You can also make sure that she is eating right, exercising only as recommended (no high impact aerobics), taking prenatal vitamins, etc.
If she is afraid, she may not be thinking about the baby but only herself. The baby may not seem 'real enough' yet.
I would tell her loving that her fear is not only potentially hurting herself, but could harm the baby as well. The baby is completely reliant on her. She needs to tell them for the baby's sake. She must be an adult and step up to her responsibilities as a mother. Her baby needs her.
If she absolutely refuses, I would go together to her parents. If you have to tell them, then tell them for the baby's sake.

She is the one that should tell her parents!! It would be terrible if her parents found out by another person besides you or her! It would also be terrible if they found out..by when she started to gain the baby weight in the tummy..and end up asking her.. if she is pregnant. SHE needs to tell her parents..it would not be right if you did...but.. if you state that shes afraid to tell them and thats why you did.. I think they would understand. Also, you're the one that got her pregnant so if you did man up and tell her parents.. I think they'd appreciate that! But I believe that the woman needs to tell her own parents and the guy needs to tell his own parents.. or the both of you can tell your parents together!

Your girlfriend needs to tell them. Talk to her first, and tell her no matter what, you will support her and the baby. Be with her when she tells your parents, and make sure your parents are there too, just in case. If she doesn't tell her parents, tell her YOU will tell them.
Good luck.

Have you told your parents? I would start there. They may be able to help convince her to tell her parents. She needs to. It is dangerous not to get proper pre-natal care. Plus if she is living with them they need to know just in case something happens. Plus since you are both so young you will need both of your parents for the time being to help you once the baby comes, so that you can finish school and have a positive future for yourself and the baby.

Yes. The longer u wait the harder it will be to tell them. Then u need to figure out how to make a lot of money to raise this child.

I would tell her enough is enough. Tell her that they need told and if she will not do it you are going to. Maybe you can go with her and tell them together. Why is she afraid to tell them? If she does not tell them then you need to. She needs prenatal care.
