Telling Your Mom Is Not the Pressing Issue? Posted: 03-11-05 00:47am
Vince,
you main concern should be supporting your
girlfriend and the baby she is about to
have? She is going to carry the baby and
may have doubts whether you plan to take
responsibility with her?
1. Talk to your girl friend and
communicate to determine what you plan to
do together. Are you both ready for
marriage? Do you plan to give the baby
up for adoption? Are you both ready to
care for the baby? The first step is you
need to be a man and take responsibility
for what you are creating.
2. After you and your girlfriend decide
what you plan to do, talk to your parents
and ask for their wisdom? Hopefully
after the initial shock and emotion,
hopefully they will support you
emotionally and help financially if they
can. Your parents know you both as well
as you know yourselves. Remember, it is
your baby and your responsibility to
support it and your girlfriend. Also,
this baby did not ask to be born in this
situation.
3. Plan to grow up fast. This is not
your mom's responsibility. It is time to
be the man and take responsibility for
your actions.
I have an 18 month old baby boy. My wife
and I cannot image our lives without him.
He has changed our lives, but in such a
selfless way. Children are a blessing.
The time, effort, and love you give is the
return you will receive from your baby.
I hope what I shared helps you make the
best decision for your situation.
Best wishes vince,
tom
