How do i tell my mum...?
...that i have a boyfriend...he isn't just any guy aswell he is the one who got me pregnant...
We have been in a relationship for a year and a half now, before we were close friends. we are now even closer. he liked me four years previous to when we got together, i don't know where i would be without him during the pregnancy we got even closer he supported through whatever decision i would take he even said that he would accept me keeping our baby.
My mum found out i was pregnant and she told me that she does not want to me see the guy again, the problem is that he goes to the same college as me (im 17) its been about 6 almost 7 months after the abortion and i am still with him, he really wants me to tell my mum and said that if i didnt that we would have to break up because he doesnt want to disrespect my mum. I don't know how to break it to her, she has only started to trust me again she is really over protective of me as she is a single parent He is more than just a boyfriend he is my best friend everyone thinks that we will last (even my teachers know that i am with him)
so what do i do? how do i tell her? should i tell her?

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
everything you posted right here
tell her
if she does not like her only because he got you pregnant.. that is nonsense because its not his fault, you were willing to have sex also. Also he stood by your side.
Your mom will have to trust you, because your in college...

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
I would tell your mom as soon as you can. The longer you wait and lie the harder it is going to be to tell her when you finally decided to. He was man enough to stick by your side when you were pregnant. I don't know what else your mom could ask for, a majority of teen fathers leave their girlfriend when they are told about it. Him staying should be an instant sign to your mom that he is a decent guy. Maybe have a family dinner and let your mom get to know him? Good luck either way.

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
Difficult situation...
I think, he bevahe ok, so I don't know why your mather throw all blame to him. I know, you did a really big mistake, but it's happend and you have nothing to do.
I think, maybe you can say your mother. But do it little by little, you know, say that you are still in contact with him... later say that you think his is really ok, and he try to help you to surviwe that sytuation... Maybe your Mother come to accept or like him 
But give her some time, she have base to hate him...

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
You need to tell your mother no matter how hard it is. You don't want this child growing up with one parent, and you deffinately don't want to lose your love. Your mom will have to understand that you are growing up, you're in college now, and if want to take on this baby, that she needs too support you 100% of the way.

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
i dont know about this idea but maybe rather than starting a conversation with her just tell her to come look on the computer for a sec and show her everything you just wrote.
the fact that you went to ask help from others will show your mum how much you care for this guy.

shows how responsible the guy is for his decision to confront your mother.

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
First of all let me say I'm sorry you felt you had to have an abortion. No one should have to go through that, no matter what. I don't approve of abortions but I'm not going to get on your case about it because I guess I understand your situation. Anyways, I think first of all you have to decide whether this guy is worth keeping. From what I read it seems like you really care about him. So what I think you should do is just tell you mom how much this guy means to you, tell her that you'll make her realize that he is a good guy. I'm not sure if this will work but it's worth a shot.

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
You shouldn't be scared of telling your mom. If you delay telling her any longer, you, your mom and your boyfriend will get hurt in the process. Approach her, and tell her of your situation. Let your mom have the moment of letting everything sink in, and then let her just nag you until she gets tired. She'll understand. Same thing happened to me, just not the getting pregnant part though. My mom took awhile, but later on she forgave me and we're closer than ever. Trust me, after you let it all out, your relationship with your mom would be better. As well as with your boyfriend. =)

I'm sure she did think about her options first, and just because having the baby was the best decision for you, doesn't mean it was the best one for her.

Re: How do i tell my mum...?
First of all, why in the world did you feel the need to have and abortion? I think that everyone should have a chance in life, no matter the circumstances.
You should definately tell your mom. You don't want her to find out from someone other than you. You would be in even more trouble than you will be. He's a smart guy to break up with you if you can't tell your own mother that you're dating him!
Back to the abortion. There are a trillion people out there who are suffering because they can't have children, and some people decide to kill theirs. That's rediculous. I know that it's too late now, but still, think about it.

There's not even a trillion people alive. Also, don't judge her. Not everyone believes the same way you do, you also don't know the circumstances surrounding her decision.
