well i just found out i was pregnant a few weeks ago. My dad went crazy! And im 21, lol. But hes dealing with it now. Especially when i had some minor problems you could see how much he really wants a grandchild and that he was ok with it. But yea i would tell my parents if i was that age. But it would be really hard, i dont see how teens do it. I would probably have a nervous break down.

I would tell just because I would have needed their help. All kids should have someone they can talk to that will help them.

You're really lucky to have such understanding parents. My parents are really strict about that and I dare not defy them. I mean it'll also go against my will. If ever I'll marry then that's the time to get pregnant.

Hey there .....Thats awesome!! Wow you were really young when you had your 1st but with growing up I'm sure you are a darn good mommy. I had my first baby at 18 and now soon to have 8 children and I'm 28 now =) I don't have any family support with my mom or dad but thats because they have a lot of issues of their own, but have a wonderful partner which makes it so well worth it =) Best wishes to you and your family

If I was 17 yes I would tell my parents. Even being in my 20s it was hard telling them but I'm there daughter they weremt going to disown me for that. A baby is a baby no matter what. My parets felt with my brother getting his wife pregnant before they where married and me before I finished college. Still haven't finished and don't plan to right now maybe one day.
