I'm keeping baby, getting married, and for a girl in my position, I've generally got it good. Except i dont know how to tell my mom and dad.

I've never been good socially and i cant argue worth anything, and our religion says sex before marriage is wrong. (mom made the same mistake with dad, so it cant be too horrible...) But seriously. I'm scared over this whole thing. Its life changing and I'm not even sure im gonna be a good mommy... (but im gonna try, gosh darnit!)

Do you know any tips on what to say? Advise? Stories of how you told your parents? What did you do when you were in my position? What would you do if you were in my position? I'm just... clueless. Help is welcome! ANYTHING you have to share will help!

I just wanted to tell you I'm 110% proud of what you're doing. It takes a very mature person to do what you're doing, and I think you're making all the right choices. You're taking responsibility for your actions. I hope everything turns out well for you.
