to scared to tell my parents?
i am about 18 or 19 weeks pregnant, and i can not find the strength to tell my step-mom and dad that i am. they live in Houston, Texas and I live in Rochester ,NY so its not like they can come get me (easily) anyway. i had had a rough relationship with my step-mom when i lived there with them but now we talk often and have a healthy mother/daughter relationship i live with my boyfriend (the baby's father) and his dad while saving for our own place. im almost 19 years old and im still terrified of my parents i get close to telling my step-mom then i remember how she used to yell and ground me over the smallest things. i know im on my own and she cant ground me now lol but im scared she will be angry and wont want to be a part of her grandchild's life, and suggestions?

Look. Your parents weren't born yesterday. If they know you're living with your boyfriend, they know you're having sex, and if they knew you were having sex, they already knew pregnancy was a distinct possibility---without you having to say a word. Believe me, they are already half-prepared for this news.
And you're not a child anymore, so just tell them. They might be angry that you waited until you were halfway through your pregnancy to tell them, so for sure don't wait any longer.

well All I can say is. Most Parents When there child is young( 16-early twenties) and Become Pregnant are not happy about it. But when the baby is Born, usually There Grandparent mode sets in. when the precious life is brought into this world No one can stand to be mad. You are bringing a girft. Don't stress about parents or anything. Just think about you. Worry about you and the baby. Your parents will come around.

What is done, is already done now. You can't "quit", so they can't tell you anything about the child anymore. They will get mad at first, but that's normal. When their grandchild will be born, they won't be any longer, cuz they'll be too easy in how to spoil him/her :)
Don't be afraid of the yelling. If it happens, it will be just a moment. You don't live with your parents anymore, and you're your own boss.
The good thing would be to take your partner, go to your parents, have a normal family dinner, and tell your family (together, the both of you), and you're pregnant, with the best words and best calm possible. If they see you've got somebody by your side, they won't freak out.

when i was pregnant with my daughter (Dominique) i felt the same way.. But i knew they would eventually find out and that it would be best if i told them. If not face-to-face then shoot them an email or call them. If you tell them the truth then at least they'll know that you can face them and tell them the truth. Of course youll get a loooonnnngggg talk but hey, once you have the kid you'll be handing themout to=D
