If your teenage daughter became pregnant, are you sure she will come to you?

Ok, now that's a scary question. First of all, if she gets pregnant, will I be strong enough to accept the situation? I guess I have to, huh. Second... will she even have the courage to come and tell me about it? Hmm... if it happened at this time, I doubt it. My daughter is the tough girl, perfectionist type. She speaks out loud her thoughts about teen pregnancies, and obviously, it's one mistake she will not commit. She's a teenager, I can't say for sure she would say the same thing when starts falling in love. I do pray it never happens, though...(knock on wood!) And I pray that in case it ever happens, she will gather enough strength to step up and face the reality that it happened to her, and then we can work things out together.

A lot of parents seems to think there daughter will come to them about any matter however thats not always true. When i got pregnant at 19 with my frist son i actually didnt know how to tell my mother and when i finally did mad wouldnt even come close to begin how she was toward me not to mention she didnt even speak to me for almost 6 months after that. Before that happend my mother and i have a very honest and open relationship as well. But when i got pregnant the second time it was even worse not better. SO i would have to say jsut because you have an honest and open relationship doesnt mean they can come to you with everything. However i dont have girls i have 2 boys and if something like that was to happen and it involed my boys i would expect them to come to me without thinking im going to get mad. And not to say a lot of parents that get mad at there children for getting pregnant or getting someone pregnant cant really say nothing if they had there children near or if not the same age. So it really jsut depends on the situation i would say.

wow that is a tough one. I would be devastated to find out that my daughter went through this without coming to me. My daughters are both still preteen so it is not something I have really thought about. I would like to think that they would come to me. We have a great relationship at the moment so as long as that doesn't change... Having said all of that though I had an abortion and didn't tell my family though I was 21 not exactly a teenager, I can still understand how it is not an easy thing to tell family about. The strangest thing is that my parents and I always had a great relationship so I can't really understand why it was easier to do it without them.
