talk about a Fu#@ed up situation, i swear i could slap my cousin!

[shaedog3]

she intentionally got pregnant, she lives in a 2 bedroom appt that is like 500 sq ft, it is TINY, she lives there with her boyfriend of 3 years and his 11 year old form another lady (they have full custody) they also have joint custody of his 18 month old form another different person, and yes he has an 18 month old, and he has been with my cousin for 3 years hhhhmmmmm........

any way, he is a felon and can NOT get a job he has been looking for the last few months and no one will hire him, because of it. they are on well fare, they get medical dental cash assistance food stamps everything they can every month and has been for about a year. she is the only one working and she is going to school, and now she is pregnant!!!!!!! 

she is just fucking up her life i can see it, i have talked to her, about it, she just thinks this baby will fix things. i could just slap her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jkleinman]

The baby can fix things?  Wow.  Um.  Last I checked when you don't have much money and things are bad already babies can add more responsibilities and some times more stress.  If they can't afford what they have now how do they expect to be able to take care of this one?  I just don't get people any more.

What did he do to become a felon?

She should be getting section 8 low housing and be in at least a 3 bedroom house. 

[shaedog3]

attempted murder.  him and his cousin were sitting in the front of the house and some one did a drive by and shot and killed his cousin infront of him, so he went to find the guy and shot him, he didnt kill him, but he paralyzed him from waste down

My mamaw always used to say, "Life is hard.  It's even harder if you're stupid."  Sounds like your cousin is in for an even harder life.

Yeah, due to fire codes, she could have ALL the children taken away....

Either way, a baby does change things, but NOT for the reasons she thinks, maybe it was an atempt to save her relationship?  I would try to be supportive, there is something there she isn't telling you, she might love this person, and she might not be able to see the destructive nature of this relationship.....

Sorry, dealing with something akin to love dependancy, and know it's easier to lie to yourself than make the decision to move on...........
