Telling your parents that you’re pregnant is always hard, because you never know what to expect. You don’t know if they’ll be angry, disappointed or even ashamed. I am going to offer you some ideas and suggestions from my personal experience on how to break the news.
One thing to consider in telling your parents the news is to be open and honest. In the long run your parents will appreciate and respect you for your honesty. Telling your parents the news is very important, so pick a way that’s comfortable for you and also can be received by them in the best way.

1. A friendly comedy card. A good laugh can take some of the pressure off of delivering the big bang. Write a note in the card that will be read at the end, or just be standing there to say it. This way is good because it’s creative, well thought of, and planned.

2. Sit down and have an adult conversation. Explain to them what your plans are before and after the baby, and be specific. Tell them you plan to continue to go to school and work to take care of you and your new responsibility. I did this one and it worked out well for me. I now have my family’s support and help. They know I’m working on keeping my plans up and making new ones. This is a good one because after they hear that you are fully aware that this is your responsibility, they may accept it better as well as give you more support. (www.girl-mom.com/node/122).

3. Tell everyone in a public place like at a restaurant so that you can inform all of your family at once. Make a toast and allow the family to take in the news, but be ready for any kind of reaction (www.ehow.com/PrintArticle.html?id=4685).

4. Write a letter and give them the option to write back or to talk to you-whatever they’re comfortable with. A letter is always a good thing, but it may be better for you if you feel like you say things better if you write them. (www.girl-mom.com/node/122)

5. If none of these are your style, you can definitely just let time tell. Once your belly starts to grow, you won’t have to say anything but “yes” and wait for the reaction. This may be the best one if you absolutely can’t find the words, because this definitely speaks for it self. (www.ehow.com/PrintArticle.html?id=4685)

All of these are good suggestions, Using some of them should take some of the pressure off of the situation and you because you’re picking the best one that helps you tell the news. Telling your parents the news is very important, so pick the best for your situation. No matter how they react, remember there are people who care about you and will be there for you.
Remember to stay calm when telling your parents. If they see that you are calm, they may be more likely to stay calm themselves. However, don’t be surprised if they do get upset. Just remember to let your parents absorb the news and then talk about your plan. Having to tell your parents that you are pregnant can be frightening, but remember to ask for help from friends, parents, or other organizations.
