    Question

    I'm 16 years old and recently found out my girlfriend of two years is pregnant. I'm not sure how or when I should tell my dad seeing as he'll probably kick me out. He's the only one that doesnt know. Her parents know. I'm just scared to tell him. Please help??

    Answer

    I suggest you tell him with the help of another adult. How about a doctor, minister, aunt, uncle, grandparent, teacher or your girlfriend's parents? Good luck and have a back-up plan.
