Did your boyfriend stay with you?

Stereotypically it seems in many teenage
pregnancy cases the boyfriend runs.
What about you? did your boyfriend run?
stay with you both? be there for the baby
but didn't stay in a relationship with
you?

Me and Dom are still together. It's been
very hard especially with me having post
natal depression but we're getting through
it. I could ask for more from him

With my first pregnancy he darted after
saying it was not his and I left the
state.
With my next 3 pregnancies my boyfriend
(now husband) did not run.

Suzy, the point is that many younger BOYS
run away. whether or not the relationship
stands at least the ADULT men pay for
their children and help to support them.
Just because a couple breaks up does not
mean that the man gets to run away from
his responsibilities.

<
span class="postbody">
my dad has not payed one cent in child
support to my mom. ever
my uncle has not payed one cent of child
support to my aunt. ever.
my best friends dad has not payed one
single cent or ever even CALLEd her since
they got divorced. ever
when kristen was born travis had to sign a
AOP document at the hospital that stated
since we are common law married AND he
understand and claims krissy that if
ANYTHING ever happened he could not
1.)demand a DNA test and "claim" shes nto
his (like some people do) 2.) get away
with not paying child support. because i
could STILL get child support from him.
does it mean just because someone will be
oredered to pay for child support or told
they should still contribute to thier
children that they will? no, not always
im not saying that many younger boys dont
run away, because i believe that 100%
at the hospital the social service lady
said she doesnt see to many teen mothers
with thier boyfriends/child father or ever
thier OWN PARENTS there to support them.
no one should ever run away from thier
responsabilities. weather they are married
or not. no mom or dad should ever get away
with it. unfortunately it happens all too
much. married or not

Yes, but it is much more common for
younger boys to run away. In most cases
the husband does support the child after a
marriage has been dissolved. My brother
had a baby when he was a teen. he does
not pay anything and has not seen her in
years. My uncle paid for both his son and
his step-daughter after his dovorce. See
the difference?
I can see that quite commonly you use your
life as a standard. Using facts and
information from a more general population
and not such a small selection tends to
result in a more widely accepted and
truthful post.

Nope. We were going to get jobs and move
out and get married because we were in
LOVE DAMMIT!
That lasted until I got "fat and health
forum" (soo... a few weeks, I suppose).

Nope. He transferred schools when I was a
few weeks pregnant and I haven't seen him
since. He wouldn't know my daughter if she
walked up and smacked him in the face (and
she's going through a phase right now that
makes that entirely possible).

Nope. If you see him you should tell him
he owes my daughter some money! 
In all seriousness. We were so young and
it was sooo unplanned that both Lady and I
are much better off without him. If he
sought me out in a few years and demanded
to be part of her life I'm not entirely
sure I'd even let him (unless, of course
my daughter wanted to know him).
He was a big mistake.
I would never sue for child support
because I doubt he makes enough money to
make it worth having him in our lives.
However, I do sincerely hope that one day
when my daughter is an adult she sues him
for 18 years of back child support and
uses the money to go to university.

He's 19, she'll be 18 soon if not
already....
i'm pretty sure she HATES me 1) because he
cheated on her with me and 2) because he's
having a baby with me.
He's in college and She graduates HS in
May.
