I'm a mother 40 years old and have 2 girls. Oldest one just turned 18 years old and a 13 year old. I've had 2 bad abusive relationships, with both of my girls father and put my girls through alot. The 18 year old is now living with her boyfriend because she got in trouble with the law and I had nowhere for her to stay and I agreed that if she finished school and do things like get a career and make something of herself, she could stay with his family(which I should of never did). She has not finish high school, never worked and her boyfriend and her are always in fights. Yesterday I just found out she's pregnant and wants to keep it. She stuck on the idea that it will help her relationship to get stronger. I've tried to talk to her about the pros and cons of this decision.Because I've went through the same thing and she lived it, why would she think it would be different? She has no future for herself, no diploma. no GED, the man is stubborn, both have anger problems and she's ttraumatis from the abusive relationships I've had. What can I do to stop this from happening? Please help me, she's going to be another welfare barefoot and pregnant statistic with an absive relationship!!!
