How to tell my parents I'm having a baby with an older guy?

I am a 15 year old female, and my boyfriend is… Well, let’s just say a tad older than me.. (well.. illegally older than me..) And we are in love, and he wants me to have his baby! While I’m 15! I do admit, I also want a baby. Financially, we will be just fine; he has a greatly paying job. But here are my concerns.. How do I tell my parents that a 20 (something) year old got me pregnant? And, are there any risks because of my age concerning the pregnancy? I’d really like some help, Thanks.

Answer #1

im in the same thing as you when and if you tell them there going to be mad and then probably tell you never to talk to him again so the choice is urs

Answer #2

have a baby at 15, sure throw your life away. then regret shyt when he leaves you for some sexy chick who’s not prego or doesnt have a child.

or have a baby at 15 and fall in love with the best guy in the world(to you) and live a happy and prosperouis life.

either way your preganant and you have to tell you parents some how.

“mom , dad, I need to tell you something and it’s a serious matter I know you love me so I know I can tell you anything…___blah blah blah…”

Answer #3

Are you sure he loves you??? He can give you the moon or whatever. Tell him 2 talk with your parents I know sounds easy but isn’t . because here on tx is illegal 15 with 20 someting. I tell you because a friend she got pregnant and she was 15 the guy was 25 he got arrested for almost a year he always told her he was not going 2 leave her because he loves her 2 much and the baby, when he get out from jail some of his friends said that he went 2 mexico and I guess never come back 4 her and the baby. Now the baby is almost 3 years in 3 months. Just think about what I said, get 2 know him and your parents 2 they have to know about him…

Hope I help lol !!!

Answer #4

I got pregnant at 15 to a guy just a few years older than me. I didn’t go through with it, thank god because it didn’t work out between us. I’m now twenty and I look back and think there is no way I could have looked after my child and how I was not in love, I thought I was, but I know now for sure because I am now with someone who I can share my life with rather than just getting attention because I wasn’t getting it at home when I was 15.

The choice is entirely up to you whether you tell your parents or not, but it is better if you have a female to talk to ( doesn’t necessarily need to be your Mum) so you can be asked how you feel and how you are both going to go about this.

This is so tricky because I know what it feels like, but luckily I had a doctor tell my mum. Funmail me or look at this website, which can help. It has helped me a great deal.

How do you tell your parents? It’s simple: you don’t. If your parents find out that not only are you dating a 20 something year old, but that he got you pregnant, they can have him arrested and put in prison for statutory rape. I know you don’t want to hear that but it’s the truth. It doesn’t matter to the law whether or not the two of you are in love. The law only cares that you are underage and legally cannot determine to have consensual sex.

As for getting pregnant, why the rush? These are the best years of your life. Why would you want to miss out on all of that? Listen, I won’t lie, I was young and wanted a kid too, for the longest time. But the fact of the matter is, once you have a baby, it’s not about you anymore. It’s not about where you want to go or what you want to do. It’s all about the baby. Yeah, baby’s are cute and funny and the thought of having a child with someone you love is wonderful. But you’re young and you have so much life to experience. You love your man, and I get that. I hope that the two of you are happy and hopefully he treats you like a woman should be treated. My advice, is to just sit back and enjoy each other for the time being.

Answer #6

No risk with the pregnancy, you can deliver the baby without problem. The question is that how good mother you can be at 15. But I think in Texas your b/f can get into serious troubles because of your age. Earlier or later youR parent will accept what happened, but if the man has enough money, you should leave Texas, and find an other place to live.

Answer #7

Please don’t get pregnant. I made that mistake. You need “you time” before you become mommy for the rest of your life. Its the only time you get.

On another note. If he’s legally older than you. He can be charged and end up registering as a sex offender and he wont be aloud anywhere around you or the baby. TRUST ME I KNOW!!! If you are inlove. You can wait until you are 18. Because your love wont want him locked up.

Answer #8

Funmail me.

Answer #9

Lots of information, Funmail me if you’d like.

Answer #10

Well If you were in texas he would be going to jail!! I don’t know what everyone above talking about. he is way to old for you and you are to young to be having a baby. You not even in high school. You haven’t stared living yet. Men say they love you and walk out of your life just as fast as they come in. I know how it gose better than any one, but I wish you luck because your going to need it. Baby’s are so muh more then just fun and goodtimes. Stay in school!!!

                                                                                        Hotazzdime18
Answer #11

well your boyfriend can get in trouble I am 15 and a few weeks ago had an abortion not because I couldn’t afford it or handle it because the age of the father. Babies may seem cute and all but when you think about it there is so much more to life wayyy past having a baby and you may say you guys will stick together but who knows. I thank God everyday am still with my boyfriend and I love him but listen ma ma give it some time
