Well I believe that you can't controll who you fall in love with if you could my dad wouldn't have married my mum and  my step mum wouldn't have married her ex husband. If they want to be like that then it's their own issue not yours just prove to them that you and your guy can raise a better baby that wouldn't be ridiculed on things that don't really matter in the long run and that you will always have your baby surrounded with love and acceptance

Maybe of you have a relative your close to you can sit down and talk with them about it plus it's not your parents decision to cut you off from anyone and if they cut you off from your little sister they will end up regretting it. Plus there's always ways to sneak around and see her like during recess at school and stuff

Tell them you are a lesbian and see how they react and if it's badly just cut them off if they take it ok just say I'm not actually but I am pregnant and its half black. It's 2015 and of they can't accept that then that is their own issue not yours

It's 2015 ! If you were so worried about your family you should've never got with a black man your grown it's been time for you to branch out if your family doesn't accept him guess what they won't accept the child either so tell them what it is and move forward if they're too ignorant to accept it cut them off or I'm sure your boyfriend will leave you for someone who will accept him the way he is we as ppl can't choose our race so put on your big girl panties and tell them

Yes your right i don't want our child experiencing that but i would really love for my parents to b apart of their grandchild's life...my boyfriend told me we should hide it for as long as possible till i'm ready to tell them...he's fine the only thing that matters to him is me nd our little one...he hates the fact that they're like that nd he made up his mind that if they do accept it he still doesn't wanna have anything to do with them but he would still allow them to b apart of our child's life

If your family chooses to act that way then theyre not the example you want set for your children.  I would hide my entire pregnancy and when they get to see that beautiful mix baby just smile with pride:) if theyre reaction isnt nice id put them out of my life until they apologize and quit being so ignorant. Im assuming youre worried about him being a different race.. be sure to comfort your boyfriend in this situation.  I can imagine what he's feeling.

Are you meaning because your boyfriend is black or that your pregnant? If your family truly loves you race will not matter!!!

I agree with her. How old are you I was also afraid to tell my mom but I promise you she might be mad but she will accept it. I thought my mom was going to be worser than what she was be she was not

You need to focus on you're own happiness and the happiness of your child, you're family will eventually except it.
