Anyone have An old fashion Dad?  
Well when my dad found out I'm pregnant, he never said congratulations or I'm happy for you something like that. He wasn't talking to me for some while. After two weeks he tells me if I wanna know why he didn't say congratulations, I was like Alright. He  said because I'm not married And that I'm 20. My mom was 20 when she had me. And no One told her anything, at that moment that he told me that I felt like if I was a mistake.
Did Any of yous ladies was told that or  left like that or what do you think?  Anyone.

My dad wasn't pleased either he suggested I had an abortion,  I got told I was cheap all sorts. And cos my ex was not supportive at the time it made things worse so my dad is like see your not only pregnant but pregnant with a baby's father that isn't responsible. It was tough but I'm getting through it. I'm 21 btw, 27 weeks pregnant. Still living at home though... But I'm glad with the decisions I've made, just staying positive and just want my son to get here already :)

I'm 24 and my dad still talked **** when I told him I was pregnant! And before I found out I was pregnant he kept telling me he wanted a grandchild! I think it's just a dad thing! You're still their little girl! Once the baby's here hopefully he'll lighten up because it is his grandchild!

I was 19 when I first got pregnant. My dad had kicked me out because my bf was 29. When I told him I was pregnant he was mad. He disowned me. When I moved back in with him the next day I found out I had a miscarriage. I was surprised he cried. I told him idc what he says im gettin pregnant again. I wanted that baby. He said okay. He blamed himself for my miscarriage. Now he loves my children. Even this time when I told him I was pregnant he was happy and congratulated me.
