writes:When I was 16 my high school boyfriend and I had a baby. Our parents were very supportive from day 1 and really helped us out a ton. Five months ago my boyfriend and I broke up and I didn’t take my birth control because I wasn’t planning on dating anyone. But one day when he was visiting our daughter we had sex . I just found out I’m pregnant again. I don’t know how to tell my parents. I know they will lose their shit.They always talk about birth control and how I need to be responsible and I was really trying to show them I was. I know they are not going to be happy about this. Especially considering that we aren’t sure if we are even back together. How do I tell them

reader, anonymous, writes (29 November 2023): Sweetheart you are irresponsible and that's all there is to it. But it's your life and your baby.It takes two to tango so perhaps you could also say that your boyfriend is not responsible either.But if your child is born then you can become responsible by doing your best to look after your babies.Maybe your parents will pick up the tab.Possibly they will assume you and your boyfriend are still an item!I think you still have feelings for him and likewise he has feelings for you but that doesn't mean he is going to be the perfect dad.If you intend to keep your next baby then just allow the baby to grow inside you.In a way it has to be your own decision what you do .The first step to growing up is to accept your situation and accept that the baby is your child and your parents grandchild.I'm assuming that you are financially dependent on them.But I'm not sure about this boyfriend.How old is he ? Is he possibly much older and taking advantage of you or are you just two youngsters together learning by a experience?
