a Little Help Would Help Posted: 01-08-05 11:14am
I'm 17 and will be 18 in march I live with
my aunt and uncle .I'm about a month and
a half pregnant and i'm so so scared to
tell my aunt .
I just don't want to hurt her or hear her
speech about how disapointed she is in me
. My mom will take it much better but I
don't live with her. Plus my aunt does
not really approve of the father :evil:
. The main reason I want to tell her is
so that I want have to lie and sneak to
Dr. Apt's and other things I have to do
.I feel that I am old enough and I am
fully able and ready to take full
responsibility of my actions so how should
I tell her?
Thanks for your time :d :d :d :d
if you don't have n-e advice just wish me
luck :d

I'm sorry honey but the best way relly is
just to tell her, let her have her rant
and scream if that is her way of dealing
with it, and try not to re-act to her
outburst, i'm sure she will come round
after she has calmed down - most do,
unfortunately one or two don't, but your
wording made it sound like after she lets
it all out that she will come round to the
idea.

Kia's 100% right. Plus it's not like
this is something you can hide very long.
And the longer you go without telling her
the harder it's going to be and probably
the more she's going to go off, only then
you'll get a bigger lecture about why you
didn't tell her sooner. Yeah, it's
pretty scary, but the best thing you can
do is get it over with as soon as you can
or else it's only going to be more stress
on you.
My dad always says you have to give people
a chance to rise above your expectations,
and that goes for your aunt. She might
surprise you and not go off like you
expect. But even if she does go off, I
agree that the ebst thing you can do is
not to react and give her a chance to soak
in what you told her and what you're going
through.
I was sure my parents were going to kill
me, and sure they got really upset at
first. But then they also settled down
and they've been really helpful and
supportive. And believe me, this is a
time in your life when that's what you
really need. But they can't help you til
you let them know what's going on.
