Q: Good News!
asked by: fairytale007 on August 29th, 2007

So, I'm not sure if I posted about this on here, but here's a bit of background. When I got pregnant, my mom and stepdad told me that there wouldn't be any babies in the house. So basically they were telling me to find a place to live after I have my baby boy.

The thing is...my father (who lives in IL and pays child support till I'm 23 or married) is paying for my college tuition as of now. The only thing with that is, I either have to live in a dorm or with my mom. And we all know that you really can't have kids in a college dorm. So, anyway, they were basically kicking me out and causing me to give up my college tuition when I will still have 1 1/2 years left.

Anyway, the good news is....
Today my mom told me that they will be moving me upstairs in one of the larger rooms (my room currently is big enough for a bed) so that I can set up a crib and what not for the baby in the same room. She told me that they would rather me live here for a while, save up money and go to school then moving into a place right away and not being able to finish college. YAY!!! That news made me soo happy. Very Happy

That's great news.
You know that most colleges have university family housing, which usually counts as living in a dorm since they are owned by the university. . There is sometimes a waiting list, though. It sounds like you have a pretty good option. I am glad she changed her mind.

Thats good that you'll be able to stay home!!

I'm just curious why you would haveto live in the dorms or with your parents?! That doesn't make sense to me, maybe the 'rules' are different were you are.

Oh and karin is right, most colleges do have family dorms if you ever do need to move out maybe you could look into that!

I have to stay home or live in a dorm because that's how the court papers were written back when they got a divorce 10 years ago. It doesn't matter to me how they were written, because, well it works in my favor. Smile Also, the college I go to is in the middle of Denver, so I know they don't have any dorms. I would transfer to another school, but I've already been to 3 colleges in 3 years, and transferring is a pain. So I'm glad that she turned around finally and will let me live at home. Very Happy
