By "life choices", are these just choices your family wouldn't choose to make for themselves, (like, what kind of car to drive, tattoos, where to live, etc.) or are they choice that are actually bad life choices (living with a drug addict, choosing not to work, etc.)?
If you're just living a different life style than your family would choose, that's your choice. But if you're living a lifestyle that would make a dangerous home for your baby and probably involve CPS at some point that's a completely different thing.
This is your life. You have choices to make that you don't have to apologize for -
My boyfriend and I were going to drive to my dads house for a weekend and tell him in person because this would technically be his first grandchild but my mom is moving so she can be closer to her grandchildren and is angry because she thinks I'm making decisions around my boyfriends life rather than my own. My family doesn't like my boyfriend much either and he doesn't want me to tell my mom until after she moves in case she decides to argue with me or him. I'm not very close to my mom but she's the only close parent that I have and I was planning on telling her last night but then her and my sister grilled me on my life choices and decided not to tell the news.
**** girl. I'm 18 and pregnant with my second child. Still living with my parents. They still support me and my two year old son. I'm thinking if I told my parents and they didn't kill me you'll be okay.Lol
I would tell whichever parent I was closest to first or both at the same time. I told my mom as soon as I found out with my first and I was only 20, still in college, and I told her with my boyfriend. My dad was not in my life so I didn't tell him, he found out later. They are your patents and they will live you no matter what. You need the support! My mom was disappointed but she was the biggest help the entire time and especially when my son got here. Idk what I would have done without her! Put your big girl panties on and let them know! Today being Father's Day would be a great time to do so.
Girl I was 20 & scared to tell my mom bc I only have one more year in college and I ended up getting pregnant but i waited til I couldn't anymore bc before I could tell her she told me. They will be happy for a grandchild.
