TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
Im 16 and i just found out my girlfriend is pregnant. In the same week i find out that shes 2 years older than i thought she was and is still in a relationship with b_______. If b______ (whos 19 btw) finds out i got his girl pregnant hes gonna get me. I dont want to leave her to look after the baby herself though. Im scared to tell my parents because i cant bare the look of disappointment on their faces. I really messed up and need help!!!
TEEN LINE WROTE:
Hey, thanks for contacting TEEN LINE.
It's understandable why you're feeling worried about what's going to happen. Have you spoken to your girlfriend about how you're feeling and that what she did (lying to you about her age, and about her other boyfriend) has effected you. Is there anybody you can talk to ? Maybe siblings or a best friend? Or if you have a school counselor he/she might be able to tell you about a planned parenthood that you can go to. I know that it's scary but it might help telling your parents about what's happened because then they can help you plan what to do. If you need to talk to somebody you can call TEEN LINE at 310-855-4673 or chat online with us. We're open from 6PM to 10PM PST.
