  • Pregnant at 16 how do I tell my parents?

    The Question:

    I found out a day ago that I’m preggers. I’m almost 17 and I’m scared. I have no idea how to tell my parents or what to do. HELP!?

    My Response:

    Dear Pregnant Teen;

    Be honest with your parents, lying only makes things worse, and the sooner you figure this out the sooner your relationship with your parents will grow. This is not going to be easy and your parents are going to be upset, and they have every right to be upset, you are 16 and pregnant and this is not going to be easy. You truly have to think about what you are going to do and if you believe or will consider abortion. I do not believe in abortion 100% but under certain circumstances it is necessary. You are only a child and you are going to be raising a child. A child not only involves your attention, it takes a lot of money, formula, diapers, doctor visits, insurance for your child and before that even happens you have to think about your doctor visits and how much that is going to cost. Is the father around, and is he even going to stick around? You may have to do this on your own without his help. If he is around it is not guaranteed that he will stick around after the baby is here. Waking up at all hours of the night and taking care of a child is not a game. Really think about what you want to do and go from there. Be honest with your parents, I am sure that they will help you with whatever you decide, but don’t think for one second they are going to be happy about this. You are their baby and now you are having a baby, and you have to not only think about this child’s health and well being but yours as well as your education and what you are going to be able to do to support this baby. It is a lot to take in and it isn’t easy, but these are the things you should have thought about before getting pregnant. Be honest with your parents is all the advice I can give on how to tell them, there really is no easy way…

  • Daughter pregnant, husband raping the dog, I cheated in retaliation?

    The Question:

    I came home from work and saw my husband with dog biscuits all over him and with his penis in my dog’s ***. He cheated on me with animal rape. My daughter’s pregnant apparently to a 22 year old. My hubby and I kinda encouraged our daughter to get pregnant. I cheated on my husband with an 18 year old sweetie. My hubby doesn’t know. I’m 45, my hubby’s 43, my daughter’s 13. We don’t want a divorce we love each other. My daughter doesn’t want an abortion and wants to move in with the guy. What are our options?

    My Response:

    Dear Dysfunctional;

    Is this for real? To be honest with you lets start with your husband – EWE!!! You actually want to stay with him after this? Second your Daughter – You ENCOURAGED HER?!? She’s 13??? I’m sorry seriously, is this a real question? How can anyone encourage a 13 year old to get pregnant, and then be upset that she is actually pregnant. If you don’t want your daughter to be with this 22 year old then you should have not pushed her towards him, and if you really want to you can always press charges, because any man who wants to sleep with a 13 year old is just a pedophile in my book. You need to sit down with your daughter (and although I don’t encourage abortion) she needs to know what really comes with having a baby at the age of 13. As for you cheating in “retaliation”, REALLY? & an 18 year old??? I think in all honesty that you all need counseling, and I am saying this with sincere thoughts… Your options: Regarding your marriage – Separation, Divorce, MAJOR Counseling. Regarding your Daughter: Pressing Charges on this “boyfriend”, Talking to your Daughter about the options and what it will be like to have a baby at 13, MAJOR Counseling.

    Good luck!
