If you are a teenage parent, you may need help from your family to care for your baby.
- Communicate with your parents. Let them know how you feel about being a new father. Try to talk with them about your feelings. Do this in a calm way.
- Listen to your parents. Try to understand their feelings. Show them by your actions that you are a responsible person.
- When your parents help you, show them that you are grateful. Your baby needs the support of her whole family.
- If you need someone else to talk to, you might ask the counselor at your school.
