 Maybe you won't get kicked out by your parents - they may be a little angry but you could be surprised by their reaction too. As for your ex, well you have to tell him you are pregnant. If you keep the baby then you need to obtain parental support money from him. However, maybe you won't want to keep the baby in which event you need to seek urgent help with regards to an abortion. Whatever you decide there are always options with regards to bringing up the baby by yourself - you need to get hooked into local welfare and health services with regards to housing, benefit, antenatal care etc. If you are sure that you are pregnant then you really ought to tell your family and the father quickly. Take Care!
