Telling disapproving parents

[LOTTIELOUU]

Hi i am petrified of telling my dad im pregnant. I already have 2 boys 4 and 3.. he went mad at both of the pregnancies. I see him everyday so cant hide it any longer. Any advice on how to tell him??

Why did he go mad op?

I was 19 when i first fell pregnant and thought i was ruining my life. When i told him about the second he said its bad enough living with one mistake never mind two.

Unless he provides you with financial assistance it's none of his business.

Oh no i work full time so have plenty of income. I just still feel like a naughty kid when it comes to stuff like this.

Don't tell him. When it becomes obvious and he asks why you didn't tell him you can tell him the truth - explain that his reactions to your previous pregnancies have been so unpleasant you did't want to.

Why do you see him every day if he such an unpleasant person?

It's none of his business really... I'd just tell him but say that if you are going to say disapproving comments then I will go. And if he says something - leave

I am the only family he has left. I make sure he okay at least once a day. He loves both kids now just took time for him to get used to the idea.

this doesn't sound like a healthy relationship OP; he should respect you not least because it sounds like he is reliant on you - too much maybe. What does your partner say? Is your Mum around?

Maybe being a dgf makes him feel old??

My dad brought me up. Not seen my mum since i was about 2. He and my OH never get on they always end up arguing.

Write him a letter?
Tell him you're happy.
And tell him to behave himself when you visit or you'll leave. And if he kicks off, then leave. He'll eventually learn.

It's normal for a dad to be upset especially when it's not planned. Tell him that you're happy with your pregnancy and he will accept that later on.
