I Need Emotional Support! Posted: 10-20-04 17:03pm
I just talked to my mom and now she is
saying that she knows im not going to give
up the baby but she wants me to give up
greg! What a health forum (sorry for
cussing but that was the least offensive
word I could come up with) she thinks that
because he is hispanic he will never be
ale to provide for me and the baby and she
thinks that I should leave him! Any
suggestions on how to tell my mom to f***
off?

Whether she believes greg will be a good
father or not the baby needs a dad...
Your mom sounds alot like mine.. When she
found out about me all she could say that
paul is a dead beat dad and blah blah blah
even though he is an amazing dad paul like
bit her head off and what now? Were
living together he has a very good steady
job works just for me and baby goes to
every single doc appt bought me a new car
hes there hes here every day.... I'll
seriously talk to your mom if you want me
to because I know how it is or she can
talk to my mom seriously i'll give u her
number or 3 way or email or something your
mom needs to wake up to reality... Greg
needs to stand up to her thats what I
truly believe I mean my mom hated paul for
him finally standing up to her since I am
so scared of my parents I was just
standing there quiet now she respects him
and has accepted him. Paul works with
mexican guys that are amazing fathers your
race should have nothing to do with your
ability to become a parent! I'm here for
you hun thru thick and thin and trust me I
know how it is! Paul will talk to anyone
too for you. I'll be your emotional
support thru it all. Hopefully since our
stories have been sooo similar so far that
they will end up the same and your mom
will turn around.... My step dad still
hates me but medical question him my mom
is happy. And paul had me meet my
biological father after not seeing him in
about 10 years and him and his wife are
thrilled.... Life works out in ways you'd
never expect... I'm here hun!

Is your mother racist? I don't think she
should be critizing him because of his
race. Hispanics can provide as much for
anyone as anybody else. You really need
to talk to her and get her thinking
straight, because he is the father of your
baby. And if you know he's going to be
there for you, don't let him go. It's
really important to have babydaddy support
if your mother is not there for you, but
she should really not judge someone on
race.

I Totally Agree!... Posted: 10-20-04 18:23pm
Im so sick and tired of her s*** the only
reason that she is saying that crap is
because he is not legal. It doen't matter
he makes good money and he supportes
himself very well. The only reason im
stressing right now is because im 16 and I
cant legally move in with him. I cant
legally do anything with him! I love my
"husband" soooooo much and I am willing to
go to mexico with him (not that he
suggested it) im just so sick of my mother
and I dont know how to tell her that I
dont even love her anymore. I know that
sounds harsh but I dont even like her,
much less love her! Im so frustrated!
Well good luck with everything sweetie!
Your mom does need to realize that you
can't support a baby alone or with her.
Trust me if she was even thinking about
helping you raise the baby she'd change
her mind after 2 weeks because she would
wake up and realize that she is now
supporting a baby as well as you and
babies can be expensive. She does sound
a little racist about the whole thing, I
have met plenty of hispanic men and if its
one thing they are good at it is saving
their money and working hard for it. I
know he would be there for you and the
baby and he would support you 100%.

You call him your husband.....But you both
could get into a lot of trouble if he is
found out.....Perhaps you should encourage
him to start the process to become
legal...........And if you consider going
to mexico, your life will forever be
changed.....And not positivley.......Women
in mexico don't share the same liberations
as they do here.....You should look into
the life of a 16 year old girl living in
mexico and then compare it with your
own......I've been there......Don't choose
that for yourself.
Have you looked into the possibility of
marraige with this man? If he is someone
you could see yourself with the rest of
your life maybe you two should marry, he
would become legal then. Although i'm
not sure how it works when you are not 18.
You'll have to look into it and make
sure that your mom cannot stop you legally
from marrying him, i'm not 100% sure about
it but its possible she can.
