Telling your parents

I am currently 15. Young, I know. I'm currently 10 weeks. And my parents will be very mad when I tell them, without a doubt. So any ideas on how to break the news..?

I dont think it matters what age you are. My partners sister was 21 when she fell pregnant and her parents acted like it was the biggest drama, trying to force her decision to terminate.  Mind you her situation wasnt exactly the greatest. I supported her in whatever decision she wanted to make and she now has a beautiful two year old daughter that her parents absolutely adore.it may not seem easy, or wonderful now but eventually your parents will come through and be happy with whatever decision you make. Goodluck

I was in the exact same position, except I'm 16. I talked to my mom and then went to my dad from there. They were disappointed at first but are finally coming to terms with it. It's usually best to talk to your mom first. She can relate more. Good luck! :)

Hey I know all about being young and having to tell your parents that your pregnant. Yes they will b very mad at first but then they have to see  how much they love you an you and your baby health is more important, an they will get over themselves .. There is no special way you can tell your parents that kinda news so its best just to say it..

Honestly theyre going to be disappointed no matter how you tell them. I was 16 when i got pregnant with my first and the first person i told was my mom, im glad i did cause even tho she was angry she was still able to help me get the medical help i needed and she was there to support me through it all. I hope you have parents like my mom, cause you shouldnt feel alone at a time like this. I suggest you tell them sooner than later.
