My friend recently told me that she is pregnant! She hasn't told her parents, should I tell her parents because I'm worried I had a pregnancy scare 2 months ago but I am not pregnant but I'm scared for her sake.
:confused:

Be there for her. She really needs to tell her parents on her own terms. Help her by being there for her. Either way yes her parents may initially be upset, but they need to know. If they freak out, she will need a good friend in you to be there. If you tell them, the fallout could mean she hates them and you. Just be there for her

Don't tell her parents for her, it's something that she need to do on her own.

Be there for her and be a good friend. Help her with her research, help her to know what to expect, be supportive and suggest that she sees a doctor regularly to make sure everything's alright. She's probably got enough to deal with, and shouldn't have to deal with her parents knowing and responding to the news before she's ready to hear it.

^ Don't listen to this.

If she won't tell her parents, you might have to.

She needs to tell her parents, she needs their support. If you are sure she won't tell, i thinj its better that you tell them.

They should notice that she's pregnant, I mean pregnant women experience lots of very noticeable changes in their physical appearance.

Firstly, the original poster didn't say anything about their friend refusing to tell their parents, maybe they are thinking about how they're going to do it. It's not an easy things you know. They were just asking if they should beat them to it.

The original poster should encourage their friend to tell their parents and offer to do it for them if that's what they choose, but they shouldn't go behind their back and tell the parents without at least informing the person about it first or giving them a chance.

I suppose you have a point. But if she tells her parents too late, then the arrangements would be a hell of alot more difficult than if she told them earlier.

Very true, let's just hope they get everything sorted out, right?

I dont understand why this is in sexuality? But let the friend tell her parents. It is not your job to do so.

Don't tell her parents but you should tell YOUR mom so she can help you through this crisis. it may come up in conversation with her mom and your mom if they are friends. some girls who get pregnant don't tell their parents until its too late or they are already showing.

Well, both option are available, i mean, she must be the one to tell them but it will be better the sooner...
mmm maybe you can convince her to tell them, because they need to prepare themselves and they need to talk to her to make her understand that now she need to start thinking about her baby..

You have to support her more know than ever...
