Please Please do not have an abortion. You have the chance to create new love and life in this world and it should not be destroyed. I know it will be hard to tell your parents. If you don't want to tell them face to face write a letter and leave it for them and talk to them after they have read it.

Throughout all this though you must only think of your child and make sure your parents are doing this as well. Stand by your descisions and remember that your parents should be there no matter what (as should your boyfriend).

shnookims agony auntI was in your situation but luckily a bit older.

My suggestion is that you first sit your boyfriend down and tell him. Face to face. Find out if he's going to stand behind you or leave.

I think it depends entirely on the family. In my case, we figured we'd tell my parents seperately as my mom was the softer person, we thought, more understanding. We waited until she was drunk, which was a big mistake because she flipped.

My dad, we told in a letter. Some may see that as the cowardly way to go, but my dad is usually very strict. We gave the letter and went and sat in another room. He called us back and congradulated us. Now, considering your 2 years younger than I was, it might not go down like that but it worked for us.

Be certain of what you want though and be mature about it. They are going to be upset, at the very least, but they have a right to be. They are your parents and they want the best for you. Hopefully sooner than later, they will realise that a child, is a blessing and can bring an unbelievable amount of joy into your lives.

Good luck.

It is really hard my dear to tell someone that you are pregnant. But the best way is to do it while it is early to avoid some problems from arising. Your boyfriend may end up telling you that he is not the one who impregnated you, more especially that you say that you have been using a condom somehow it busted. He can defend himself that he always used a condom, so how did it happened, which means you have been cheating on him, yet it is not true.

You can even ask your best friend or your closest relative to tell your parents. But your boyfriend its better you tell him while it is not too late, if he truly loves you he will accept it then you continue with your life.
