Had to Vent!! Posted: 08-10-05 23:17pm
Okay I know i'm new but I need to vent
lol. Well basically my boyfriend is being
dumb. He is 17 and isn't going to school.
He hasn't been going since last year.
The last year he completed was sophmore
year. He would be a senior this year, but
he's not. I am going to a school that is
on the same campus as the school he could
go to. I asked if he was going and I
guess I kinda bothered him about it a few
too many times and he says I am bothing
him, and to stop asking if he was going to
go. Well I am mad now. I want him to be
able to do something other than sit on his
butt all day. If he doesn't go he will
never graduate, and he keeps saying he'll
get his ged but he's been saying that for
a year and 3 months. I am just upset
because I want him to do something besides
play on the computer. I need some advice,
if you have any please feel free to
share!! Thank you!!

I can totally understand why you would be
frustrated.. I would be too. I think
you just need to sit down and ask him what
he wants out of life and how he plans to
support your baby...Ask him if he wants to
work at mc donalds the rest of his life
and be living paycheck to paycheck because
to be honest with you a ged isnt as good
as a high school diploma. It is really
good to hear that you are still going and
plan on graduating.
I think the only thing you can do is try
to have a talk with him, but in the end
there isnt much more you can do then
that..I mean it is his life. Me
personally, id tell him that if he wants
to be a good father and be a part of my
childs life and he would get up and do
something with his life.. He is almost a
legal adult and he needs to get his caca
together. Sometimes an ultimatiem is the
only thing that works.
