How can I tell my parents I am pregnant without them freaking out?
OK, so my boyfriend and I had sex last monday. I have been thinking that I may be pregnant (I'm 18)but my parents don't like my boyfriend. I am determined to tell them if I am pregnant that it was with my boyfriend ( of which they don't know about nor do they like). How can I go about telling them if i am pregnant that I am pregnant without them yelling at me or freaking out?

First of all -- don't tell them you are pregnant until you are ABSOLUTELY SURE.
It's just going to fuel drama with your family if you're not even sure.
You have to remember to put yourself in your parents shoes! If they don't like your boyfriend they probably have good reason. Parents can see things we don't see when were younger.
Regardless, take a pregnancy test to find out if you are. So -- if you are, when you tell your parents, try to tell them both together and sit calm in the living room. Be prepared for them to yell and scream and be angry, you can't really stop that from happening.
Maybe they'll surprise you and be accepting?
Just give them time to handle and process the information.

Have you even taken a pregnancy test? I suggest you take one before freaking them out like that. But really it's inevitable.
