lets be realistic; We are both still in school with no College degrees, We live in a small apartment with 2 other people, We live Check-by-Check. I jsut don't see how we could be ready right now.
I live check to check, but I'm positive that I'm ready to raise your child. Even if your financial situation were never to improve,you'd still have the means to raise your child. Assuming that your financial situation is eventually going to improve, your kid won't have to wearthrift store or hand-me-down clothes forever.
Is there no assistance for students with children at your school? What were your plans for children before this pregnancy? What were your plans foryourselves? What isn't ready?
Maybe it's just the time to learn what being a parent is all about rather than the time to put it off for a later time.
As for adoption....NO, If we were to go through that procedure why wouldnt we jsut keep the baby then! All those adoption advocates in here, any takers? PM and we can set something up. keep it real. if you gon saysomething, back it up.
So, does that mean that the issue is the pregnancy itself?
Regarding adoption, I'm willing, but why should I or anyone else invest our time into this if the two of you would change your mind at the end? On top ofthat, adopting your child would mean that we"d be having an open adoption. While I've seen and heard of successful open adoptions, that's not theroute I'd like to take. Why not fully educate yourself about this option? Regardless of whether or not an NTer or someone else online commits to you viaprivate message, your child will be adopted if that's what you desire.
Side note, I believe I sent a PM to Kerry (various NT names: Excelldorado Red (sp?) may have been the first) when he started a hoax thread about getting somehoodrat pregnant. He let me know it was just a joke.
plus my belief is its never a kid until a few weeks after when it starts developing just because your little man swam up in a egg dose not mean its a human yet.
It's not like his girlfriend could possibly have a tree or an armadillo growing inside her.
