The first thing you have to do is get a pregnancy test. You don't want to tell your parents without knowing FOR SURE that you're pregnant. If you are, then you have to tell your parents. They are the first ones who should know because they can help you the most. Just tell them that you need to talk to them about something really important. If you don't want to tell both of them at the same time, I'd tell your mom first. Mothers tend to be more affectionate abd they'll understand more than dads. Get straight to the point - don't try to avoid telling them straight out. That will make them mad. Be prepared - their reactions may not be the most pleasent ones in the world. They'll probably be mad at first, but they'll get over it. Also, don't wait to tell them. If you wait long enough, the pregnancy signs (large belly, morning sickness, gaining weight) will start showing up and they will get suspicious. I wish you the best of luck with telling them.

first of all you need to find out if you really are pregnant or not. because you dont want to tell ur parents and then it end up not being true. If your parents are the strict type i would tell them when you are getting in trouble for something else. like say: mom dad whatever u r thinking right now it is worse. ok and then tell them that you are pregnant. If they are not the strict type then you should just approach them and tell them that you need to talk to them about something very important. tell them. i am sure that they will help you out with it no matter what the situation is. i hope i helped.=)Amanda.p.s.good luck

first of all you should check if you are. Get a pregnancy test. or ask an older friend to get you one. and if ur not sure if thats right than go to the doctor. you should tell your mom first usually they arnt so hard on you like your dad! but definitely tell her if u are. just ask her if you can talk to her about something and tell her to promise not to freak out your just trying to be honest. tell her you know it was the wrong thing to do and it was a mistake. tell her it just happend. hopefully she will understand. thats the only way i would know how to do it..

just tell them the truth

Step One: Determine for certain whether you are pregnant. Take an over-the-counter test, and then see a doctor.
Step Two: Evaluate your parents. If you think that you may be at personal risk when you tell them, do so in the presence of another adult, such as your doctor or a clergyman. DON'T tell your friends or your boyfriend until you have told your parents; you are a minor (I'm guessing) and they are responsible for you, so they should be the first to know outside of your doctor.
Step Three: Sit them down, and tell them the unvarnished truth. It will be very hard on everyone, most of all you. Be prepared with your answer when they ask, "What are you going to do?" This is a time when you must act like an adult, and not cry out things like "I don't know!" Don't try to minimize the situation; any excuses you give will not change matters. Tell them who the father is UNLESS you think you may be putting him at risk by doing so.
Step Four: Inform the father. Again, if you think you may be at risk from him, have an adult you trust on-hand. The reality of the situation is that this is primarily your burden (you're the one with the uterus, after all), but he should at least know about it. (NOTE - if you are below the age of informed consent, and he is over 18, then he is guilty of statutory rape. Whether you press charges would be up to you and your parents. It would probably be a good idea to get some expert legal advice in this case.)
Step Five: Make your decision insofar as what to do about it. Whatever you decide will be something you must live with for the rest of your life, so be sure you can. Be realistic and practical, but not at the expense of your own soul. Remember that there are hundreds of couples waiting to adopt.

Don't tell your parents if you don't need to. Right now you aren't positive, so go to the store and buy a pregnancy test. Take the test. If you're not pregnant, be more careful next time and leave it at that. If you do end up being pregnant, you need to tell your parents. If you hide pregnancy from your parents, you won't be able to get the neccessary pre-natal care, and you can damage yourself and the baby.
Also, whether you're pregnant or not, you're still sexually active so you should be seeing a gynocologist.

Its up to you but it shows more responsibility if you are honest and tell them face to face before you take the test. And then ask them if they will be there with you while you take it, like say it would mean a lot to you to have their support.
Or
you could take the test and tell them if you are.
Good luck!
Hope I helped!
Babies are wonderful if you are pregnate it is your choice to keep the baby or not, don't let anyone influnce you, ofcorse you do need to inform the father once you find out you are pregnant if you are!
Good luck!

don`t tell them yet because you don`t know if your pregant take the test or to the doctor.If the test is postive sit them down and tell them that you are pregant they may yell and your father & mother are going to hurt but you know that the main question is DO YOU KNOW WHO THE FATHER IS?

Don't have any mights or maybes. Take a test, find out for certain.
If you are, then you just have to tell them. Don't write them a note, or email them. I'm sorry, but that won't work. That is childish. It has to be face to face.
If you are adult enough to have sex, you should be adult enough to raise a child. If you are adult enough for these things, you are adult enough to face the music with your head high and your chin up, my dear.
Sure, they will be very upset with you. It is your responsibility to take it like a woman, not cower in fear like a child.
If you are pregnant, you have to grow up all quick. Telling your parents and taking their wrath is only step #1, and you have an eternal staircase to walk up.
This is a far cry from the last scary thing you have to face, considering you have pregnancy and childbirth(which isn't easy), and then actually raising a child (which the word easy is never involved).

Well first of all you deffinetly don't know if you are or not unless you have seen a doctor or taken a pregnency test. So do that if you haven't and if you have and you found out then the best thing to do is to sit down with your parents, probably your mom first if you could then be like "Mom i'm in some trouble and I want to know if you will be there for me throught the whole problemdd." and just kinda let her know you're going to have to tell her eventually anyways, just be careful how you word certain things, and try not to bring up the guy at the moment because that will just get them mad. Wait until like the next day to tell her aboput the guy.

Uhm. you can sit them down and tell them you might be pregnant, that would be difficult. You could write them an email, you could leave them a note.
I can't think of anything else.
Good Luck with everything, hope i helped.

Firstly, make sure you are definitely pregnant before you say anything to them. Once you have established the facts, then decide how and when to tell them. If you are pregnant do some research into how you are going to proceed next. Whether or not you are going to keep the baby or if abortion is an option, even adoption. If you intend to keep your baby, work out how you are going to continue with your education or get a job. I know it is a lot to think about but if you show that you are intending to take full responsibility for the consequences, then they are more likely to support you.
Honesty is always the best thing in such cases. Tell your parents that you are expecting their grandchild and that you need their support and help. Tell them that you have thought long and hard about your future and give them some idea of what you would like to do.
They will be angry and upset but I am sure they love you. You are their daughter and, if they are like most parents, will want to be there and support you through this.
Please listen to what they have to say, you may not like it but try and understand how they are feeling.
Above all else keep strong and know that this situation will sort itself out eventually. Nothing stays the same. Good luck.

I had this problem. Do you have any money or a health dept.? buy a pregnancy test, tak it and make sure you are first. MAKE SURE you rap the box in something before you throw the test away! When your sure be prepaired because your just going to have to come straight out and tell them. No bullshitting. If you dont think you can do that write them a note, tell them you didnt know how to say it but.... then be ready fr the fussing. KEEP ME UPDATED. because i want to know what you are going to do.
The health dept will give you a test and they cant disclose your info to your parents without ur permission.
