parents

I'm 18 and a freshman in college. My baby daddy is my best friend. Not even my boyfriend. Eventually we'll have to tell our parents and we're super scared. Any advice?

It's not about being together everyone... It's about moral support. Her question is about being scared to tell the parents. So my advice, get it over with. If your parents are close & easy to talk to things will go smooth. There may be a moment of madness but it will go away very quickly. Don't worry about being in a relationship, you just make sure that baby knows he/she is very loved by both sets of loving parents & grandparents.

I'm just afraid of having no family support from either side. Mine will be pissed and his parents are moving out of the country
