prettycakes answered Monday December 5 2005, 8:13 pm: Wow, you definitely need to tell your parents, as difficult as that may be. Maybe you and Jason should consider putting the baby up for adoption. AFter all, it would be very difficult to raise a baby as a teenager. There are SO many wonderful couples out there who aren't capable of having children of their own who are dying to adopt a baby. This would be the ultimate unselfish act. The baby would have a healthy two-parent family and you would have your teenage life back. If you keep the baby your life will be changed forever. Raising a baby is truly HARD work--I know I have two of them! I am praying for you and your family!
denajah5 answered Monday December 5 2005, 7:03 pm: think of it like this:would it be worst for you parents to see your belly showing and they come up and ask you, or would it be worst for you to sit down and tell them.
your parents cant exactly force you to get married.they can try their hardest but at the end it you and "jason's" decision. either way you put it you parents are going to no your pregnant.you have to decide what is the better way for them to find out.

RockStoleMySoul answered Monday December 5 2005, 5:49 pm: Well, I'm sorry to say, but if you're deciding to keep the baby, I think that you should get married. You've been together so long that I don't think it would be a big difference. You need to have a nice family for that baby...not have it grow up without a father. You do need to tell your parents so that they are prepared for the baby and in case something goes wrong, they don't just "find out" You need to sit them down and tell them. If someone else tells them, they might feel betrayed and hurt that their own daughter didn't have the decency to tell them.
hitler_the_goat answered Monday December 5 2005, 3:54 pm: well kid, you have certainly screwed yourself and any hopes of making more than 19k per year. let's see, if your manfriend is willing to remain poor with you for the rest of his life, then you should certainly marry him. now tell your parents and get it over with. stop procrastinating by reading the rest of this advice and do it now! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told! it puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. it does what its told!

shescreams33 answered Monday December 5 2005, 3:45 pm: Well, you really need to tell your parents, I'm surprised they haven't noticed. They'll probly be freaked in the beginning but they will respect you more if you tell them now instead of them finding out you were hiding it later. I think if you love him and he loves you and you guys want to keep the baby you should get married. A baby needs a mother and father.
pleze rate
sizzlinmandolin answered Monday December 5 2005, 3:10 pm: Your parents would rather you tell them then they notice. A baby does limit your plans for your future and there's a lot that you have to think about and decide. Your parents can help you with these decisions! The sooner they find out the better because you'll have more time to talk about everything with your parents Jason's parents, Jason, and yourself. It's your choice if you want to get married, your parents can't force you to. I think it's a good idea to wait a few years and see how things are going then. You can't know what your parents will think or say until you tell them about it, they may be more understanding than you think. You do know, however, what they can and cannot do. If you are responsible enough to have sex and a baby at age 16 you should not be embarrassed, scared, or unable to tell your parents about it. I know it's going to be really hard, but it's something that you have to do as soon as possible. Get them together and alone and say "I'm pregnant". That's all. It will go from there. Be prepared for your parents to get very upset, or very angry. Just as long as you can stay relatively calm you will be fine. I hope that everything works out for you and good luck!

cheddar answered Monday December 5 2005, 2:51 pm: you really really need to tell your parents. you're 5 months pregnant, and.. nobody has noticed..? well, anyways, you definitely should sit your parents down and make sure they see that you are ready to take care of the baby. i hope you have money and a job, because babies are very expensive to take care of. you shouldn't expect your parents to help you.. but if you're lucky they might. you have to tell them sometime, and better now than when you have the child.
