If you are pregnant, and your parents are not at all happy about this, then there are several ways to convince them, to help them cope with their new status of grandparents, if you present the information correctly.
Pregnancy is not always as joyful as it might seem. Especially if your own parents are not happy about it. What to do in this case? What to do if parents are not tempted to become grandparents in the near future?
Independence
First of all, it is worth remembering that you will have to give birth, not them. Therefore, the decision on whether to keep the pregnancy or get rid of it is up to you. Don't look at your parents' opinion. They once made a choice in favor of your birth. Try to plan your future life. If there is an opportunity to earn money now, while the pregnancy is small, use this chance. Financial stability and your seriousness will be able to convince your parents. Over time, they will understand that you are not going to hang your child on them, but are quite ready and able to deal with it yourself.
Persuasion methods
If your parents are totally against your pregnancy, then remind them that the baby is a little miracle. As if by chance, put them your baby photos, magazines with articles about pink-cheeked babies, talk to your unborn child. Few of the parents can resist such a "childish" pressure. Finally, talk to them on an equal footing. Tell them how important it is for you to feel their support, how important their attention and care are to you. Try to convey to them the idea that this baby is not only your continuation, but theirs too.
Wait
If you are determined to become a mom, then in no case back down. Even under the pressure of their own parents. Remember that now you are responsible not only for yourself, but also for the future baby. Endure all the unpleasant and poignant moments in the family. After all, when a child is born, it is quite possible that your parents will melt. Chances are, seeing your newborn grandchild or granddaughter will make your parents love your baby with all their hearts. They will definitely thaw out in relation to you. And you can amuse their pride by noting how the baby looks like a grandmother or grandfather.
When your parents found out that you were pregnant, weren't happy? Don't be in a hurry to get upset. After all, not only are you on the verge of something new, but so are they. Now they are slowly moving from parental status to the status of the older generation. Give them time to get used to the thought. Don't pressure them, just tell them about your intentions, plans for life, how you are going to cope with everything. Remind them of what they felt when they knew they were going to be parents. And also how your grandparents reacted to it. Perhaps this will help your family get through a period of misunderstanding.
